My work place has an external harddrive which function as storage for all our photos. Last month it died, and obviously no backup was ever made. So both our own IT guy and one out in the city tried to get data from it but to no avail, it was totally dead.
Since I had nothing to loose and everything to gain, I opened the harddrive and poked the head a couple of times and assembled the harddrive again. And it worked! So I was able to get 37Gb of photos of the disk, and only 5 files where damaged and unable to copy.
Yay for me!
