Power supply dead

My Router just died :-( Looks like the power supply has gone as there are no lights on the device at all but the lead has voltage.

I'm struggling to get the data off the drive. I've got the drive in a USB caddy and plugged into my winXP desktop. I'm not a linux guy and don't know my way round the OS.

I've loaded Total commander with the reiserFS plugins and can see the drive with it but not any data.

I've got a Suse Linux OS running in a virtual device but cant see the device under that.

I've used ONtrack recovery which is recovery data in the RAW format but it's sequentially numbering files with the same extension which is going to be a nightmare with 250gb of files to sort through. Esp the Exe files :-S

I'm watching another wl700ge on Ebay right now. If I swap the drives will it just see the drive as it did on this one or will it attempt to reformat the "new" drive it sees ?

Any help in resolving this would be great. My backup drive died 3 weeks back and If I cant get my data back then I've lost 6 years of family photo's
