Kyle, I tried googling Virtual Labs Data, and I only found a handful of allusions to it---no hard information or address. So, yes, I need more info; specifically, is the cost dependent on the total size of the recovery? For example, if I only require 1GB of files recovered, do I still pay the full $119 (for any PART of 5GB)? I'm coming down to the wire here, and I'm rapidly running out of options. Thanks, guys.
IMO that sound WAY to cheap to be correct pricing.
$500 minimum is more like it, and googling just now, only one place had that, and every PC or Mac drive that I know of that has been sent out for recovery cost $900-$1500. And yes, you usually have to recover everything- by the time they give you a listing of what can be recovered, essentially they HAVE recovered everything and want the money.
There is/was a place in Colorado that would do a (single) Zip cart for $150 to $200 IIRC.
Since you have the DiskWarrior, and a fancy Mac, think about the Disk Warrior "scavange" someone mentioned, coupled with a bright shiny new Firewire external. Could work, and then you'd have a nice big useful backup drive for future, so you would not have to worry about this again. Pwehaps cal the DiskWarrior people and see if they thing scavange might work where the other failed.
