Read David Lipman's reply. He recommended one. I just wanted to add
that the approximate price he quoted is not unusual; it's in the
typical price range for that kind of service.

YW

Let me just say that I have used there services several times. Sometimes to save a few $$
I'll send them the bad hard drive and a good hard drive and they'll extract the files and
place them on the good drive. Then send both back to me. Other times they have sent the
drive back with a USB external hard disk on which they extracted the files from the bad
drive.

In ALL cases their service has ben quality!

The last time I had to get a a quote from a data recovery service, the
target was a 100 gig laptop drive, and the client opted for the "no rush"
service. The estimate was about CDN$1600, and considerably more for the
"rush" service.

In the end, they looked at the drive and the heads had crashed into the
platters and they judged the data unrecoverable. The recovery service
was owned by the manufacturer of the drive.

Whether the drive is internal or external doesn't matter. You're sending
the drive in, not your PC. The service will provide instructions for
packing.

And you always paid $1000+? How much data did they recover? Is it more
based on the amount?
