Sorry D666, I'm still laughing…...

[Chris]

Is his name Allen Edmonds?

In my younger days I used to have a beautiful Siberian Husky called Sasha, and one day Sasha eat £100 in notes, and my £200 Yohiji Yamamoto Adidas sneakers…... Sasha is no longer with us.

[Chris]

Why were you keeping cash in your trainers, silly man?

Oh, and is your Sasha fur lined jacket toasty warm?

[Finn666]

so good D666…so much to Alden eh!?
i wonder if he would have done the same to Vibergs, Wescos or White´s

[derivative666]

[Omega Man]

Sorry to hear this D666.  The dog is marking his territories.  He wants your boots  :P!

i really would like to know how a seul pig would have handled the situation!

[Seul]

It would have recognised its value, taken pics, and put them up for sale on SuFu, StyleForum, and here.

[Finn666]

that seul

[Seul]

Granted, the pics might've been a bit M_P'ish…

PS: miss that fella...

Strange question to Finn and Scroogen, when you power up the hard drive does it make a slight clicking noise? If so, it is indeed dead.

ok, back to this…my external hd "sounds" like it is working, so i hear some movement going on, when powering it up! still i can´t "see" it in the workspace though and no sign is showing after i´ve plugged it in...strange!

going to send this fekker to cologne soon…the hd is fucked but i need someone to help me out on getting back my data! min. cost of 249€...yessir!

[Seul]

That's bullshit. Do some Google'ing first… I know my mate sent his HD to China (!) to get it fixed/ the date recovered, and it was far, fàr less...

[Finn666]

hmmmmm…
will do tomorrow, but maybe you could ask your mate again?

[Seul]

I'd rather not, as I'm not sure whether it was fixed completely. All I know is that I made the payment to the Chinese fella and it was far, far less. So I'm sure there must be a cheaper way.

[Snowy]

Data recovery programs are WAY less than that. If the drive is spinning the recovery will likely work. As said by others if it stutters/chinks etc, it's likely going to need to have the platters (spinning disks), inserted into another drive/motor, which has a very low success rate, unless extremely qualified. Summary; DIY, or pay a fortune with a chance of kissing it goodbye anyhow.

thanks for the input guys. well the hd starts to run when i power it up and after a short time, a "clicking" is clearly hearable.
brought it to a friend of mine who´s running a computer store and he told me that the write-read head of the hd is fekked (that´s why the "clicking")…
the external hd isn´t showing when plugged in!

[Snowy]

Yeah that's going to be one of those expensive/risky to fix jobbies. Needs to be in an entirely dustless operation with a skilled technician.
