Lol, the disk swap trick actually works.
Had a DVD that was not recognised by the OS anymore and I just disassembled the drive, put a working one in, waited for it to spin down, took off the lid replaced the disk, and put the lid back on. Now it dumps the broken one without throwing SCSI errors.

Would you trust a USB 3.0 HDD (with anything) that has 0.000001% of unreadable sectors?

(not related to the picture I shared earlier, I'm working on 4 different recovery projects at once right now with an entire stack of "unknown" aka. to check and potentially recovery left on the desk. Don't we all know coming home for #Christmas to meet up with ones relatives?)

What is this damage pattern of this disk?
I feel like when arranged correctly it makes some pattern but I'm not good enough to get something better.

Maybe because I only resized the columns and bars to have the cells reflow around and not actually put it onto a circular disk. Either way it looks quite interesting.

Your Backup Plan Is Incomplete Without Restore Tests

Backups should be routine not only for folks in the IT. If youโ€™re reading this you probably already have SOME backup process in place. Ideally automatically or with a scheduled reminder.

Anyone have any recommendations for *or against* any specific #DataRecovery specialists around #ProvidenceRI? I'm willing to travel a bit, so the surrounding states could also work. #Connecticut #Massachusetts #NewHampshire

I was moving (yes, I stupidly moved instead of *copied*) a bunch of data off some external HDDs and onto another one. During the final leg, the PC controlling the transfer lost power. The "from" drives still mount and appear usable, but the files, if still there, are not evident. The "to" drive isn't even mountable. I've tried a few methods of recovery myself, but I'm afraid to do too much and risk overwriting everything I'm trying to recover, so now I'm ready for professional help.

Snail mail may also be an option, but it would be a last resort since I don't love the idea of putting the drives in the mail.

Also open to advice on how to vet someone if I just start calling around.

 Boosts are welcome!
