[THIN] Re: OT: PC hard disk recovery tools

Hi Joanne,
Don't forget about Bart's PE boot disk to recover data.   
http://www.nu2.nu/pebuilder/  It also has some great tools included on it. ( 
http://www.nu2.nu/pebuilder/plugins/) You should also look at adding 
Sysinternals Disk commander for recovery and some of their other tools.  I use 
BartPE all the time on dead systems to try and recover.

Subject: [THIN] OT: PC hard disk recovery tools


Weâve been experiencing a lot of disk failure lately on the desktop scene. Do 
you guys have any favorite third party disk management tools or utilities for 
desktops that have saved your butt?
 
I feel we shouldnât have to recover data, because users should be saving to 
the network. And why try to save a power surged dirty messed up disk? But hey, 
the boss is a spending mood and the level 1 techs may benefit. 
 
 
 I use chkdsk to repair or if that doesnât work can I usually get data off 
the bad drive by plunking in a boot drive. Iâve used File Scavenger with 
great results. But thatâs about it. I donât believe in magic, or putting 
the disk in the freezer etcâ
 
Thanks,Joanne
