I just park it in the freezer with the cables out to the computer and start working as soon as it
gets cold. You can get a whole day that way and recover virtually all of the data.

How's that for a big [well, clumsily oversized], power-cooled external case?

I was thinking of mentioning the baggie but I eventually stopped doing that because I don't
leave the drive 'on ice' for long before turning the attached computer back on. It cools quicker
without a baggie so it tends to take only about twenty minutes before SpinRite can start
recovering the few lost sectors if any were damaged.

Afterwards they can become an interesting bit of artwork or even a cute [if noisy] desk fan if
the platter bearing is still good enough for that.

nobody answer this but tech geek... I was playing my normal xbox 360 live, and i have to disconnect my pc from internet to connect it into my xbox360... i re-plugged it in to my pc, and my ip port was gone, do you know how to reset an ip address?

What operating system are you using? I need to know that because there are different ways for different operating systems.

Just seeing if this works?
Is there a thread for wishes??

Taking advantage of my own thread!
