I need to recover some files from a SCSI drive that failed over a decade ago.?? Are there data recovery services that can determine if the files on the drive can be recovered or can actually do such a recovery??? Now that I think about it, I recently also had a fairly new Western Digital drive suddenly no longer be seen by any Windows PC and I really need many of the files on it.?? Can anybody here tell me if drive manufacturers offer recovery services? I ask this since I saw a post somewhere that Seagate offers some sort of file recovery via cloud storage.
Recovery services tend to be expensive. You'll need to decide just how much the data is worth to you. Seriously.
If the problem is "external" (a problem with the circuit board attached to the drive), then repair or replacement of that board may work.
Try DriveSavers If the problem is "internal", then you will not like what it costs. But, NSA could almost certainly recover your data.
