Not really its been a pretty universal experience of very old systems for me that they don't like being stressed or powered off. :(A bit of a coincidence for two disks to fail and a memory fault to develop all at the same time, while the disk I was copying to was unaffected?
Although as others have said trying other adapters and systems is worth a go as you might find some way of at least extracting the data.
I've decommissions several systems that have been running 24/7 for years and I've seen one system that failed to power on after it was powered off and another where the systems was running fine until I loaded up the system disk to recomission it as a test system at which point the disk stopped responding. I also recently lost a network switch which was running fine until it powered off at which point it would no longer bring up the physical links and transfer frames.
