    The people getting paid $2000 to recover 160GB of data are hardly “idiots”.

    I am very interested to learn this trade professionally. Where can learn it in? And the cost of such studies?

    it’s brilliant that you made a distinction in the beginning of this video about who this intel is for. I worked for a company in New York City that charges lot of dollars to recovery data and I can tell you they don’t use half the technique you explain. Data Reco is definitely a DIY for the average computer user. With a little of of preventative measures and with frequent backups, there is no need for the average joe or jane to pay for Data Recovery.

    lol if u tamper with the drive and u fuck up, a) you cant get the data back
    b0when u finally send it to a recovery team, they’ll charge u even more

    I wish someone would do a video on file recovery for QUICKBOOKS.

    Intuit is a bunch of thieves.

    I keep a back up every week, and my file failed on the 6th day.

    So now I have to go back in and do all those transactions again manually.

    Anyone know how to recover from error -6000 -301?

    Thumbs Up! I am very glad you put video this up! I was replacing logic boards on hard drives that failed at work or for friends as far back as 1998, however going into the drive and replacing the read and write heads or trying to recover damaged platters require experienced staff to safely recover data.

    great info, great vid.

    Yes this is true, if 1 drive dies in a RAID 0 they are both gone. However if you can somehow image the failed drive and mount it on another drive you will get your data back.

    Good luck!!!

    your computer could probebly read the harddrives and detect them but probebly not configured to use them

    THROW A DOG A BONE!

    Dude, I had one of those Lacie Big Disks crash on me and while I’ve had success in the part with Data Rescue II in the past, this one is MUCH HARDER!

    The enclosure has 2 drives. As I understand, they’re “RAID STRIPED”. I pulled both drives and popped them into enclosures. one fired up, even though the computer wouldn’t read it. My brain is going a million miles an hours and I don’t know what to do.

    If one drive’s gone then they’re both gone right?

    I teach a class as well that does go step by step. It is really hard to cram days of work in to one hour like at these conference.

    These are great videos, but there’s still no single definitive answer of the exact step by step procedure.
