|| SportsShooter.com: Member Message Board Hard drive recovery Chuck Steenburgh, Photographer Lexington | VA | USA | Posted: 10:10 AM on 06.30.10 ->> OK, it has been awhile since I have faced hard drive failure without backup (this is a friend's drive, not mine) and I am wondering what data recovery tools are out there today. Anything like ImageRescue for HDDs that can scan a drive after it has been re-initialized and re-formatted? Or can restore access without resorting to the former on a drive the system no longer recognizes?  This post is:  Informative (0) | Funny (0) | Huh?

Rene, I'm going to give OnTrack a try...they have a trial edition, so I can see how this will work. Mark - it's not totally dead, but Windows won't recognize the logical volume and wants to re-initialize/reformat the drive.  This post is:  Informative (0) | Funny (0) | Huh?

I have a couple of my 12 external drives that will only operate with certain cables. The cables work fine on other drives, though. My 2 cents.  This post is:  Informative (0) | Funny (0) | Huh?
