Yeah, I know that feeling. I don't have anything unrecoverable, but am guilty of not backing up. Its that time and effort part that is the killer. > But... if I were you, and I had an extra drive laying around I'd slave > the bad to the good and do the retrieval just so I could go to bed > happy. 8) Fortunately, I've been too busy lately to re-purpose the hard drive I replaced. If I can't get the data, I guess I have to lose those weeks in between... You know, the funny thing is that this is the first drive that I felt comfortable not backing up.
