Hi, A quick update to this thread - turned out the data on the disk was irretrievable (even with Disk Warrior apparently). A shame, but the Apple reseller who looked at the MacBook revealed something I found intriguing: he has received and email from Apple basically stating that Apple have had so many MacBooks with faulty HD's and customers data being lost that in certain circumstances (i.e. if the customer shouts enough, I imagine) they will send the unit to the US for data recovery under warranty, FOC. The caveat being you have to pay shipping and taxes (which unfortunately, mount up very quickly when shipping from the UK). Anyone know if that's true? If so, to me that almost constitutes as addmittal of a design/manufacturing fault!
