Hello,
I was wondering if anyone on forum has experience with data recovery from an HFS+ drive. I purchased Diskwarrior, and was not able to recover the drive. The data is important, but not $600+ important to me right now. I have recording studio audio files I would like to recover and negative scans from a lot of photographs. I still have the negs, so I can re-scan, but it was a lot of hours scanning and cleaning up the files. This was my backup drive that I copied important files to.. . when my main computer drive blew up, I thought I had this backup. The studio has not had any work in over a year while I'm under construction so I this isn't mission-critical stuff with paying clients, just personal projects. -'Chung |

Chung,
We were talking about your problem over lunch. Here's three options we came up with: 1) Do you have a spare smaller drive laying around? Install it in the enclosure end hope the problem still exists. If it does, get another external enclosure and that should solve things. 2) Do you know anyone with a newer machine? Ask if you could install the drive on their machine to see if it is okay. If it works, then you just need to replace the external enclosure. 3) Go out and get another enclosure and test the drive in that. I liked this option least because you'll have to spend the money for the enclosure without knowing if it will solve the problem. Let us know how it turns out. |
