I've got a lot of data on an external drive that is currently not showing up on my desktop. When I open Disk Utilities the drive shows up, but I can't run any repairs on it. Does anyone have any suggestions or know of some quality disk repair software? I'd really rather not pay 800$ to recover the data, but there's a lot of crucial work on the drive, that I really don't want to lose.
Thanks |

I've heard nothing but good things about Disk Warrior, but if that didn't do the trick for you, you might try TechTool Pro:
http://www.micromat.com/index.php?option=c...id=31&Itemid=83 I've used TechTool Pro for several years now to maintain my internal drives and my external firewire drive and I've got no complaints. It also includes a data recovery program which I've used effectively on a number of occasions. Unfortunately, I don't believe they offer a demo, but the app can be had for under $100. |
