There was someone posting on here - abcd datarecovery or somthing like that. Not used them myself, but seemed genuine.

http://www.diskeng.com/ has been used by a member here

Ontrack (used to be Voga) has also been cited.

There are a LOT of dubious data recovery companies out there - so be VERY careful before you commit. Do a search on the HEXUS forums using data recovery as the search terms.

In my work we had 2 disks fail on a 1TB RAID 5 and used OnTrack.

They managed to get everything back no problem. The turnaround depends on the price you want to pay. I think it was around £2400 for a 5-7 business day.

would cost less to have another raid5 array as secondary backup!

Sent drive to OnTrack
drive had severe physical media damage ( heads come into physical contact with the media )
