Lenny, Bummer. I lost a 2 Tb drive a few months back. Fortunately I was able to get it to read sporadically enough to gather the data that was essential, then I cut it open with pliers and a screwdriver to see what makes it tick. Now a new 4 Tb replaced it.

I contacted Seagate and their recovery service on the drive is out of my reach. For a hardware type recovery it would be $599 or $699 if I wanted them to put the files on the drive. They have recovery software that does not work on my win 7 machine. After a few attempts I called back. I was told that my computer with 4gb does not have enough memory. I do believe that a win 7 32 bit machine can only use 4 gb. I plan to call a few computer shops for estimates. --- Please visit my web page It’s motivational, inspirational with a touch of humor There is also a very extensive resource list for the blind http://www.LennyMcHugh.com International Brotherhood of Magicians member #43990 For answers to frequently asked questions about this list visit: http://www.jaws-users.com/help/ For answers to frequently asked questions about this list visit: http://www.jaws-users.com/help/
