I have a friend that runs a data recovery service. Not cheap but not bad if you must have that data.
He has had professional training, done it for a while, invested in the right toys, but it is his sideline. If you are interested, send me your contact information off-line and I will have him contact you. WD have had a long term bad rap with me. Seagate is better, but still no the absolute. Various companies hold top honors from time to time, but eventually old age, technology changes, a bad batch with infant mortality problems, etc ... bad disks come from even the best vendor. Warranties have also gone down hill, and they work hard at keeping you from exercising them when something does happen. But most vendors, if you have the documentation, will do what they say, but only just. Don't expect anything over what they state explicitly. ><> ... Jack 'been burnt to many times not to be skeptical' Whatever you do, work at it with all your heart...
