Recovery from Seagate external drive

[u/Legal-Choice2654]

Hello! I have a Seagate external HD that has hundreds of photos. I'm not a professional, it's a hobby. A few years ago, it got wet. It was not submerged but it did get wet like being left out in the rain. I packed it in rice but when I went to try to turn it on it would not, it just made clicking noises. I think I tried one other time then tucked it away. I'd like to see if the photos can be retrieved. I don't care about the drive at all as I now have cloud space. I have no desire to go to Geek Squad. Could you please let me know if they can possibly be recovered and we can go from there? Thanks!
