Yes, it's HFS+ -- I tried gluing together the chunks I could copy, with blocks of NULs in between, and am currently feeding that through a demo copy of R-Studio, hoping that it does better on a while image than it did on individual chunks (or trying to read directly from the damaged drive -- it seemed to get stuck at the first unreadable block it hit.
In other news, the DVD that I thought I'd managed to restore ~/Src and ~/Projects from ... contains a valid directory directory structure and files that look like the right sizes, but each of the files is all NULs. *grr*
Not sure about SMART -- I can't see that, but I don't know whether the drive itself lacks that feature, or the USB enclosure fails to allow access to it.
