There is a cheap device you use to slave your old hard drive to a new comp. I have had this happen a couple times where I fucked up my windows operating system a couple times and was told the drive is useless and all the files were gone. After being ripped off for 400 dollars from a guy who was supposed to recover them another guy who works at a computer store told me about this device http://www.imicro.com/item.php?item=IMBS35G-BK This solved my problem, I hooked it up with my old had drive and plugged it into my new comp and all the files that were supposed to irretrievable were right there ready to use. you use the connectors it comes with and then you can slide into the case which is shown in the picture. The USB hook up is easy. No members have liked this post.

Re: Catch up
Don't know what software you tried. I used Recuva once to salvage some files. Might be worth a shot if you have not tried it already.

Re: Catch up
I don't know anything about drives, but I can tell you that we don't ban for bad ratios. We encourage everyone to do whatever they can to help others on the site, whether that is having a good ratio, doing some B&Ps, creating some covers, or donating to the server costs.
