"Simple" data recovery using a program like SpinRite is not so bad and that price seems great when you look at the costs associated with a full "forensic" type recovery case. Those can quickly reach $1000 and more depending on the size of the drive.

Heya folks,
I took my laptop into the shop yesterday, to see if it could be fixed and anything salvaged. They just called me, and told me they were able to recover my data. So it looks like I will get all my recipes back!! By the way, the hard drive died..that was the problem. They put in a new hard drive, so that should be fixed.... I do have a backup now, and I will definitely be backing everything up. Price for all of this? $215, which I am thinking is totally reasonable for a new hard drive and recovery of all the data....

I know I had many of them from all of rfc... I am thinking that I will make a whole meal from the recipes there.... I will be THAT excited!!! Christine

Are you backing up your whole drive to an external drive with imaging software, or just your data on a flash drive. I had a flash drive with all of my backed up data fail. Hugh

I just did a crashed laptop for somebody and I charged them 390.00 so you got a really good deal. You can't beat memory sticks for convenience but I'd get a little portable external drive for backups. Get one with the 2.5 inch laptop drive, not the full size 3.5 inch drive. They are much more rugged. Paul

OBRecipes: I made a roast chicken last night and the kidlette came into the kitchen when we were about to carve it and said, "Where are the lemons?" LOL! I had to explain to her that I couldn't find any decent lemons (not the right time of year here) so I couldn't make the p0rn0 chicken. She was not amused... -- Cheers Chatty Cathy Egg tastes better when it's not on your face...
