| 1268292 | 2012-04-05 03:06:00 | Ive seen this work a few times as well. Ive never been brave enough to try HD's are rated for ~300+ Gs when off so is relatively safe, use as a last resort though. Can also wrap it up & stick it in the freezer for 1/2 a day. That sometimes works, usually not though Expect to data recovery to cost $500 - $1500 if sending it to a specialist. Local PC repair shops will only just run some software across it & that wont work if it cant be detected in the bios I would much rather spend 50 bucks than 1500 and the computer lady has nice long legs that go all the way, worth 50 to perv at them. |
