Data Recovery Index

My hard drive crashed in my HP and i have another one that is blank. If i stick the blank hard drive into my computer and press F10 to do the system recovery will it put the windows files and things on the hard drive? Will it interfere with the other hard drive if it Magically starts working and i use it again?

The OS comes with HP recovery CD/DVD is an OEM edition of that OS. Of course you can install it on another hard disk but it will ask for a valid serial number; since the SID(security identifier) changes with the change of disk. If you can get a fresh serial number, you’re in.

I have some confidential/private information in some of my files, so if i have a company do Data Recovery on my laptop that recently crashed are they going to be able to see all of my files?

I have a portable 500gig WD drive which just crashed on me this morning! Talk about an unhappy thanks giving! What would be the starting prices for data recovery? What does it depend on?

Best reply by Aaron:

For a drive that size. About 1000 dollars plus other fees.
