See Matthew G. Kirschenbaum, Mechanism: New Media and the Forensic Imagination 
(MIT, 2008), for where this discussion could go . . .  That's the Manovich of 
storage retrieval, electronic writing, and new media criticism of historic 
artist's work in computing technologies applications to creative writing.

Subject: Re: [Frameworks] Data Recovery
 

I like a place called Drive Savers, I've used them on a few projects for very 
important footage, they are able to rescue data 99% of the time and the one 
time they couldn't they kindly sent it back to me with no charge. If your data 
is important to you it's worth hiring an expert, in my opinion.

On a side note, I was on a project once where 3 days footage was inadvertently 
wiped, Data Rescue did the trick, San Disk was also giving out a free trial on 
recovery software that's worked everytime on CFs and SDs.

My two cents

Before sending it to anyone, I would crack the case and try mounting it 
internally or buy an inexpensive enclosure or SATA (if it is SATA) dock and see 
if it spins up. I have had external drives actually go on fire and have been 
able to recover them. It's usually the power supply or interface that goes, 
though drive failures can occur.There can also be issues with corrupt 
directories that can be resolved with software.
