Re: Please help me resurrect a dead hard drive
The fridge is a last resort!

The drive I was trying to recover failed in the data retrieval and was no longer recognised by the BIOS. I had heard about the fridge method in a newsletter. Decided that the drive failed as it warmed up, so had nothing to loose. Initially it was too cold, but when it warmed a little, it was recognised by the BIOS and the data was recovered Strange, but true!
