->> Anybody have an idea how to recover files off an old drive that lost its header information. Drives was about 80% full and crapped out. |

->> If Mac and still spinning, then DiskWarrior. They have great customer support, call them before you purchase and explain the problem. Great program to have for a Mac to keep your drives from crapping out for non-mechanical reasons. Run it once a month to keep your machine running fast and detect any problems before they happen.
I used it earlier this month to recover over 300 gigs of data on a failing drive.
Best $100 bucks I've spent on my Mac.

->> If all else fails you can use SpinRite, but SR only runs on a PC not Mac. It will recover PC, Mac, Linux, DOS, whatever format hard drives. http://www.grc.com/sr/spinrite.htm |
