I've salvaged 3 HDD's from a failed server (running WIndows server
2003). All were fine immediately before the server failed (no
diagnosed reason for failure yet). The first disk is fine, but the
other two show as "unreadable" in XP (SP2).
I ran Spinrite (v6) level 2 data recovery on both disks. In both cases
it completed within a couple of hours and didn't report any errors.
Both disks were NTFS.
Both are Maxtor drives - one a Diamondmax Plus 9 200Gb, the other a
540DX 80Gb.
Can anyone advise on next steps? These disks contain data which would
take helluva long time to restore (and clean up) from a number of
sources.
TIA for any help
