Well, to stir this up a bit, I'm working with a client to move all of their UNIX systems under AD for user management as a long-term goal. Join the Dark Side of the Force! Come Shannon, we have a place for you.

Zealot? Really? Not me, never.... ;-) Windows is fine for desktops, but that is about it in my book. As far as the issue at hand, I spoke to Ontrack once before. They offered to do a free estimate if it did not entail removing the platters. It it included removig platters, I think it was a hundred bucks or so, then for the data recovery between $100 and $2000 depending on what they had to do. That was a few years back and the personopted against it. Guess the data was not that important after all... Assuming your drive has been submerged, I would think that would guarantee platter removal.
