Data recovery isnt covered under ANY warantee. Shit cost upwards of 1500 bucks ave for recovery. PM me and Ill try to get you a copy of the program that my co uses lol. Can you see the drive in disk management in XP? There might ber a chance, if it doesnt spin or recognize its going to be fucking impossable for someone like me to do it. Sometimes they have to take the platters out to recover the data lol. ---

We had a bunch of drives go bad here at work. The disks were fine but the board was all fucked up. We swapped the little circuit board with a known good drive and got all of the info off of a few important drives. ---
