Hi All,
My apologies in advance for posting in your group, but I really need help with
data I'm trying to recover from a dead hard drive. When my daughter was born
and arrived home from the hospital, I couldn't afford a camera of video camera
to record her, so I borrowed an old webcam from work. It quickly became a
ritual to record videos and pictures with the webcam every few days. Over the
weeks and months I managed to capture her first smiles, feeding with a bottle,
first laugh and more… at age 4 months I had enough (600MBs worth) media to burn
a CD, but the hard drive crashed the same day I brought a CD home from work. I
lost pretty much EVERYTHING I had. My wife and I were completely devasted...
I have tried changing out the controller and several software suites to try and
recover the data, but nothing worked for 3 weeks. I finally sent in the drive
to a professional data recovery company, and they can extract the data, but at
the cost of $1500! Only in my dreams to I have this kind of money around. So,
I'm asking for help from family, friends and strangers alike to please donate a
dollar or more to help recover the data. I started a donation site on Friday,
August 15th, 2003 and I'm updating it weekly.
Please visit http://www.completedisarray.com/corinamemories/ if you're
interested in helping, or just curious to see more about what happened (There is
a sample movie, a FAQ, and additional proof this isn't a complete scam).
My thanks in advance to anyone who can help by donating or spreading the word
along :)
Thanks!
Dan
