Re: Seagate Rosewood Families, Headmaps and Preamps
It seems now that the next challenge is to figure out how we can safely identify the head count in a drive when some models can vary between 2, 3 & 4 heads.

TimeClock Plus database location
As the technical support for TimeClock Plus feels that they cannot tell you the default storage location of the database on a Windows system without being provided a license key, I thought I'd be helpful to show it here: \Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSQL11.SQLEXPRESS\MSSQL\DATA\ The file ext...

Re: MRT DE - image a couple specific folders only
The MFT is just a single file, usually in a few fragments. Read the fragments as separate chains and be done with it. It is when you get into FAT and EXT file systems that it becomes super messy pretty much better to just get a full clone of the drive before any file system recovery attempts.

Re: MRT DE - image a couple specific folders only
The way it should work is to image the MFT first, then read the file tree from the already imaged MFT. Then select and create a map of sectors associated with the files you want to target. Then image just the mapped sectors without thrashing. When complete, generate a file tree showing the files tha...

MRT DE - image a couple specific folders only
For data recovery professionals, it is very important to be able to quickly target key files and folders that clients need recovered as a priority. But, how you image the sectors connected to those files and folders can have a huge impact on the stability of the drive. The best method to do this is ...

Re: Recover .mp4 file from WD with bad sectors
First off, if the data is of value, it is probably better to take it to a recovery professional before further damage is caused. It sounds like the heads are starting to crash and the more it is powered on, the more damage that is being caused. But, with the idea that you don't care if you completel...

HDS721010KLA330 Head Maps
I posted about this on the Ace forums a while back and thought I'd post a summary here after encountering a second drive with the same symptoms. These drives have 10 heads and when mirroring in DE, the 10th head is not reading any sectors. I was unable to find a solution for the first drive with the...

Re: Spark vs. Rapidspar
It should be noted that neither of these tools are meant to be used as an alternative to professional data recovery tools like DeepSpar Disk Imager and PC3000. Rather, they are meant for computer technicians who are looking to handle more in-house recoveries while still sending out the complex cases...
