Subject: [TLUG]: OT: 2.5" hdd data recovery<BR>
<BR>
I've a friend who's Hitachi Travelstar has packed it in after 4 years of<BR>
service. Of course he doesn't have a backup. The drive is unrecognized<BR>
in both my external USB enclosure and in another laptop, leading me to<BR>
believe that something is wrong with the power connection, and/or the<BR>
internals themselves.<BR>
<BR>
This in mind then: does anyone on this list do 2.5" physical recovery or<BR>
know of anyone who is reasonably priced who does? By reasonable I'm<BR>
talking home user prices, not corporate datacenter, globally deployed<BR>
swat team recovery experts. I'm talking a maximum of $500 or there is no<BR>
recovery. A near impossible request, I know what the larger services<BR>
sometimes charge.<BR>
<BR>
A grim situation, so TIA for any contacts of offers to help. I know of<BR>
the large companies like CBL and Ontrack of course, google is useful,<BR>
but... someone mentioned a downtown company a while ago (last year) that<BR>
starts with an R, something like R-Tools, or RT soft? I can't remember,<BR>
but they were reasonable and local.<BR>
