I really think that you can still recover your data before attempting a firmware update. With an ocz vertex 120GB reading at 80MB/s you can copy approx. 24GB in 5 minutes, meaning that you could still split the copy of the raw device and join the result later (with a hot plug/unplug between each raw copy). If you want me to give you the details, do not hesitate. --- On Fri, 7/27/12, Boris Liberman <[email protected]> wrote: > From: Boris Liberman <[email protected]> > Subject: Re: Computer trouble follow up > To: "Pentax-Discuss Mail List" <[email protected]> > Date: Friday, July 27, 2012, 8:17 PM > Well, it behaved the same way under > two different mother boards and in usb enclosure.
