+1 for Data Rescue here as well. I have used this to save some of my friends files when all else has failed even after I have used TechToolPro or DiskWarrior to save a dying HD. I know nothing about File Salvage but have seen a couple of good write-ups about it.

Data Rescue 3 is the program that is the most talented and most successful among others. Here is the info about it....' 2009/11/12 Paul <pper...@gmail.com> A couple of months ago, I reported trying to recover an external hard drive used on a Mac but formatted as FAT32. I believe it was wiped out by Disk Utility doing a quick format. Recovery attempts under Windows got a lot of files, but barely any were readable. I'd post a continuation on the old thread, but I'm only given the "Reply to Author" option, and I assume that means the message wouldn't be public. A local Mac guy suggested running File Salvage on a Mac, and right now the trial version is churning through the disk. It won't let me save anything, but its previews are showing what look like a lot of working files. Has anyone tried File Salvage? Do you know where to get it for less than the $70-$80 prices I've seen? -- You received this message because you are a member of G-Group, a group for those using G3, G4, and G5 desktop Macs - with a particular focus on Power Macs.
