OK, now that I have unsubscribed to all the other LEM lists, as I am about to go off scuba diving for a long week (Sea of Cortez), I need help so I guess I have to post here.......
A client of mine has called me about her LaCie external SCSI HD on her 7200 which can't be found with any disc utility. She took it to the local apple dealer first, then she called me......???? They say the drive is DOA. She lost a years worth of data (since her last back up) and even told me that the machine was on for a few weeks and the drive had started making some weird noises....... when she shut down and restarted the drive was gone. She was using a 7200 with a small internal HD with the system on it and everything else was on the LaCie 6 G external. All her business contacts and design work. I thought I remembered someone somewhere saying sometimes you can freeze a HD and when you restart it, sometimes it will work once but be ready to back it up......... Anyone else have any suggestions? Second would be a disc recovery service? Kyle H said he had connections..... I'm leaving on Sunday morning and want to try and help this lady....... -- Alan Miller Underwater Photographer http://home.earthlink.net/~uwphoto/ 9600/233 w/ G3/400 XLR8 ZIF, 1.5 G RAM eBay ID uwphotoer Live each day like it is your last because someday you'll be right. -- PCI-PowerMacs is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
