I have a raid 0 computer. I defraged my computer with a bad sector on one of the hard drives. I now need to recover some data.
Can i recover data by plugging one HD at a time into a 2.5″ HD enclosure and having another computer take the data off it?
Best reply by blamay22000:
Sure providing the drive is still functional and the data you are looking for isnt corrupt

will this work for Hard Drive recovery?
I am looking for a good data recovery service (preferably in Manhattan) that is neither wildly expensive (preferably below $400), that will not destroy my hard drive. I’ve heard that bad data recovery services can actually make it impossible for you to ever get your data back. I don’t want to lose my data to inexperienced people. Thanks for any advice.
Also, if there is a company that is really good and affordable that I can mail my Hard Drive to, then that might work too.
Thanks!

You might want to consider this alternative to having someone else do the work:
If you’ve got a lot of valuable files that must be recovered, have a look @ ‘SpinRite’ from GRC.
Does total disk maintenance; checks cable interfaces; many deep disk checks, recovers data & fixes HDD errors; etc.
THE industry standard.
About $90 US; money back if not satisfied.
Money back if not satisfied.
Google for reviews.
Well worth the money.

Works on Mac drives: use Spinrite first, then migrate drive & use the Mac recovery utility on the repaired data.
Does not work with newer “solid state” drives.
