So far, yer the only good report I've seen/rec'd. For me, I think Kyle's 2nd reply sums it nicely... Data recovery is a serious business. At the high prices they charge ($129+, heck at any price) - their broken engrish is beyond unacceptable. Why would you trust your data to a *commercial* business that can't even manage to produce something simple, like a web page. - Dan. -- - Psychoceramic Emeritus; South Jersey, USA, Earth --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed Low End Mac's G3-5 List, a group for those using G3, G4, and G5 desktop Macs - with a particular focus on Power Macs.

(unless Tucows has REALLY cleaned up their reccomendations...it used to be anyone who paid for placement got 5 cows. You could offer a piece of software that simply immediately crashed your computer, and they'd give it 5 cows.) I'd download their software and try a recovery on a sacrificial system disconnected from the Internet. It's a bit pricey, but if it works well it's a good tool for the toolbox.

Never heard of them either. And if I can't recover the data myself using a myriad of tools, then I am with Bruce. I send it to Drivesavers. Or I drive over to Drivesavers and talk to Jennifer and hand her the drive since they are so close to me.

Re: Stellar Phoenix Macintosh Data Recovery
And after a quick look at their website I would not trust them. They list HFS Wrapper as a supported file system and claim support for recovery from Lacie Hard drives? Since when are Lacie any different than a standard external hard drive? And this sentence is barely comprehensible: Either you possess your lost data on Lacie drives, USB drives or Mac hard drives, the software stands as the ultimate Mac data recovery product and hence the best solution. I would not use this software. If you want a data recovery solution that works a lot of the time get Data Rescue from Prosoft Engineering. It's a good user based solution that any person that can read can deploy.
