<div>Ontrack's software is pretty good, but I had a user whos laptop was formatted and then reinstalled with XP who didn't keep his files on the server as he was supposed to. The user noticed immeadiately. (hey where did my unsupported and non-backed up Goldmine CRM go?) My company spent 1500 dollars and Ontrack was unable to recover anything that Ontrack's "Easy Recovery Pro" couldn't. Then again this wasn't a hardware failure so that may be very different.
