Hi folks,<br><br>I just had the misfortune of having my hard drive crash on me ... it seems like a mechanical failure ... horrible clicking noises ...<br><br>There is some data on there that I haven't backed up recently, plus, I had used this drive as a backup for data on some other hard drive ... while this is not catastrophic data loss, I was wondering if folks had any suggestions for recovering data in the face of mechanical failure ... or what it might cost if I paid some service for data recovery in the twin cities.
<br><br>It is a ext3 file system .. though not sure that matters ... <br><br>Thanks,<br>Subbu.<br>
