Re: Data Recovery On A Unbootable Drive

Assuming the connections are firm, but still no go, I would say your only
hope would be conect the drive as slave or via usb to a PC and see if you
can access it.
If not a data recovery specialist is expensive

I am a complete novice. My hard drive on my laptop became unbootable.
There
are some files on it that I need to recover. I was planning to do a
complete
backup this weekend. The system does not load to the Windows system. I
tried to repair the system. but it said it could not find the hard drive.
I
am having a new one arrive tomorrow. If I run the Recovery Console, will
that allow me to access my data? I am a student and I do not want to pay
for
something that I can do myself. I am unsure of the full specifications,
but
it is a 60GB hard drive for a Dell Latitude D505. The BIOS shows that
there
is no hard drive present.
I hope there is someone who can help me.
Thanks
