Data Recovery Disk Warrior
Anyone have your hard drive disintegrate? I’m wondering how much to recover data on my HD.?
Hello, I understand hard drives are mortal creatures, and yes, I should have backed up my data. I have a 120 Gb external hard drive that went kaput. I tried Norton, Data Rescue, Disk Warrior (I’m using a mac) — nothing. If you have any further suggestions on retrieving my data myself, even better. Otherwise, I think I’m screwed and might look into the services of a data recovery firm (but I’m a broke college student not looking to shell out a ton of cash). I’m hoping to get a ballpark of how much this might cost me. THANKS
most hard drive recoverys start at $150-$500 and go up depending on the amount of data recovered. Try OnTrack for recovery also. A trick I use a lot is to wrap the drive in a towel and freeze it (yes, in a freezer) for 12-18 hours. Take it out and immediately plug it in and see if you can retrieve the data. Had to freeze on twice to get it all but it works about 50% of the time. Good Luck.
