If you can still access the data in maintenance mode there is absolutely nothing to worry about.
As a last resort you could always open the case, unplug the HDD, attach it to another system and mount it there. But this is really a last resort, there should be more elegant methods to solve the problem.
As homeyjoe has already said analysing the three-digit-code would be the first and most recommendable thing to do. Find out what your problem is and then develop a strategy to solve it.
I hope this helps.
