digitalphoenix Posted January 10 Report Share Posted January 10 HOLY FUCKING FUCK!!!!! I'm so fuckin' bitter right now.My friend was updating my pc and even though I repeatedly told him to disconnect the 2nd drivehe forgot, and did a complete re-format of both drives.I've lost 4 1/2 years of compiling mp3's. It's my own fault for not backing them up.Remixes, acapellas, dark shit.....all gone.To top it off, he decided to swap out the drives and he installed Windows on it. He says that one of those drivesaver places can get the data back even though it has Windows on it...but how much will that cost?? Anywhere from $400 on up...This fucking sucks.

funketeer Posted January 10 Report Share Posted January 10 not only does keeping mp3 on your computer risk the possibility of losing them...it also brings down the performance of your pc...sorry dude, that sucks!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nexusgroove Posted January 10 Report Share Posted January 10 Well if your (Friend) did a low level format, there is no recovery for that data.i suggest looking online for some warez, look for a data recovery program that allows you to scan the layers on the HD see if that data is still there.before spending $400+ on taking it to a Data Recovery Center. They might charge you 200$ and tell you that they couldn't Recover. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll take anything I can save. I had a bad ass program that the FBI uses to extract data from HardDrives that has been erased to be used in court. But the CD that it was on was damaged. If i find the copy of it I'll send it your way.Good Luck!annd next time tell you PC guy to look at the ID's of the Hard Drives before you format. it tells you what hard drive you are going to format... They are teaching 2nd grade students how to format now-n-days. peace. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

philippio Posted January 10 Report Share Posted January 10 Good thing I sent you that e-mail a while back with the hidden spyware (I've been copying all your mp3's right under your nose). Don't worry, you can thank me later. I'll sell you back all your mp3's at $3 per file. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
