Jason,
This is one of the things I do regularly.
Give me a call tomorrow in the morning to discuss further. I'm based out of Burlington.

Subject: [TLUG]: OT: 2.5" hdd data recovery

I've a friend who's Hitachi Travelstar has packed it in after 4 years of
service. Of course he doesn't have a backup. The drive is unrecognized
in both my external USB enclosure and in another laptop, leading me to
believe that something is wrong with the power connection, and/or the
internals themselves.

This in mind then: does anyone on this list do 2.5" physical recovery or
know of anyone who is reasonably priced who does? By reasonable I'm
talking home user prices, not corporate datacenter, globally deployed
swat team recovery experts. I'm talking a maximum of $500 or there is no
recovery. A near impossible request, I know what the larger services
sometimes charge.

A grim situation, so TIA for any contacts of offers to help. I know of
the large companies like CBL and Ontrack of course, google is useful,
but... someone mentioned a downtown company a while ago (last year) that
starts with an R, something like R-Tools, or RT soft? I can't remember,
but they were reasonable and local.
