My main hd whent down yesterday which was an ide one, I also had a 500gig sata drive connected which was the guts of my external drive (dont ask :lol:). So I whent and bought a genuine 3 month old 500gig drive that was used in a server for £20 and installed OS (win 7) on it. Connected my original sata drive with all my back up files on and nothing, zero,zilch. Takes said drive to local shop and ask if they could hook it up just to see if it is recognised. No he said it is shot, it has power but shows no data :gag: Not one for giving in easy it was a gentle tap around the drive with hammer :nuts::nuts: Plugged drive back in and bingo, transferred all my files over and whent and bought 3 more 500gig drives for £20 a pop.

So if you need your data recovered, send it in :lol:
 
Nice one... I've often put 'dead' hard drives in a sealed plastic bag in the freezer overnight - around 90% of them have let me recover data from them when plugged in the next day, although you normally only get 10-15 minutes to do it, then they definitely die forever! :D
 
I had a computer that would recover from BSOD if you kicked it right

I tried selling my foot to microsoft but they didn't want it :(
 
Good, old fashioned IT - Impact Technology!
 
Where were you lot last year, I was having a fit trying to recover the data off my dead hard drive!

I have used the same freezer method for at east 3 or 4 hard disks 2.5 and 3.5 inch with good results.
 
Don't tap it, WHACK IT!

Most common fix for IBM/Hitachi laptop drives.
