Gibson Research can't spell my name. A lot of people can't. Their web site
cites a quote from an article I wrote in the last century, mid-90's or even before. I guess I could pull Steve's chain and ask him to fix the spelling. ....

I'm not trying to get personal, just asking one or two general questions. Essentially I'm asking because inlaw #1 told inlaw #2 how good of a job I did for #1 so #2 wants the same thing. At least #2 isn't asking to borrow my car at the same time like #1 did. thanks. (promise I will obey any privacy issues (if any) you have like I have for others here when they email me) |

Data recovery is always a crapshoot, even with the most sophisticated and
expensive tools. Back when I reviewed SpinRite, it did not have any data recovery. Back when I reviewed SpinRite, the prevailing drives were MFM and RLL, with ESDI and SCSI on servers. IDE was still a wet dream... Ben Myers On Fri, 18 Jul 2008 12:15:53 -0400, JayB wrote: spinrite is not all that its cracked up to be. i'm disappointed in it for data recovery.

Got an email back from Steve Gibson. He said that his SpinRite page now has a
