[OT} (slightly) Anyone knows an affordable HD recovery

[Jeff Reynolds]

Malte,

ill second diskwarrior, its worth the $100, been a champ for me over  
the years when drives have gone bad. just got a portable disc  
resurrected that had gone south. worth spending the money as the time  
it saves dinking around.

cheers

jeff
