552345 2007-05-25 03:01:00 Yes I am fairly aware of that. I know there is some VERY hightech software out there however which will deal with some pretty sad drives - but I've never been able to track it down. I've seen the likes of Gibson's Spinrite (which has some dubious claims made about it) and other utilities such as "HDD-recover" et al, but so far none of the real serious tools have shown their faces. That is because they are industrial grade apps, how many industrial grade apps do you know of? ;)

Went kaput. No backups. They really didnt want to lose the photos.

Think it cost $2k, but I can't remember. Something obscene anyway
