| 571516 | 2007-07-27 07:37:00 | I did some reading on the hard drive in the freezer trick a few months ago, and one guy actually went to the extremes of hooking his drive up on a USB interface (from an external drive) so he could power it up and read it while it was still in the freezer. Apparently it ran successfully for about an hour - giving him plenty of time to recover the data off it - but a lot depends on how bad the problem is. Data errors are more recoverable than mechanical ones. |
