[Ham-Computers] UNFORMAT HARD DRIVE

Wed, 10 Dec 2003 13:51:54 -0500

Hi Don:

Check out FILERECOVERY Professional.  This is a shareware program that is
"Time Limit, free to try, $99.95 to buy".

:  http://www.50download.com/32659_download-FILERECOVERY-Professional.htm

I located this with a simple "Google" search on "unformat hard drive".

There is also a product named Hard Drive Mechanic at:

Good luck & 73,
