One of our animators lost some work to a WD external going tits up.
I heard or read somewhere that HD's are most likely to fail in the first 3mo or after 3 years.
looks like ill be trying the old Freeze your hard drive to recover data trick again,
it worked for me once,
not sure if it will again,
i will be making the move to seagate and maxtor for now on,Thanks

Thanks just downloaded that,
ran a test on my main maxtor drive,
the smart status on it failed,
said the spin retry count,
this is not a good day for me and hard drives i guess,
well that is not good,
