I've been using it, it's very professional, except that they nowadays keep their (quite good) documentation in some wiki on the web. :-( > http://www.ufsexplorer.de/products.php (commercial) This product also offers a "test mode", i. e. you can run it for free, but functionality is limited. At least you can use it this way to check _if_ there is something to recover, even though for _actually_ recovering it you'd tend to use free UNIX tools. There's another recommendation I'd like to add: R-Studio and R-Studio Emergency. There's also a live CD well suited for diagnostics, but of course you will have to pay for the full (and therefore fully functional) version. So I think it's worth _first_ checking out the free tools on UNIX, especially TSK. You _need_ to understand _what_ you are going to do in order to have a _chance_ of being successful. There basically is no "Joe Q. Sixpack's Click to Recover All The Files" tool for free. :-) -- Polytropon Magdeburg, Germany Happy FreeBSD user since 4.0 Andra moi ennepe, Mousa, ...
