seattle data recovery

holz there may be some out of work Microsofties that could help you living under the highway overpasses pretty soon...

Hold on, don't go spending tons of money yet. Recovering a drive will cost $1000 or more since they have to find another model of your drive produced within a few weeks of yours (for firmware reasons). I just lost my Seagate 500gb 7200.11 drive, turns out there is a major problem with this series FYI. Anyway, try some programs with trial versions to help you see if you can recover your data. I used these and recovered all of my data: Partition Find and Mount Nucleus Kernel NTFS/FAT Search Lifehacker too, they have good articles about data recovery. KO
