    Why is no one using Yahoo

    Here's a good reason. I just want to update the out of date address they have listed for my business. To do that you have to "verify your business". However when I try to do that it takes me to some pay updating service (which is annoying). So I decide to just cave and pay to update it...

    Why You Should Never Buy Tenorshare Software

    Scam Alert!!! The company Tenorshare makes their business out of constantly spamming forums like this with links to their software. They never present themselves as software representatives but always pretend to be users of the software and recommend it to everyone. DO NOT BUY THEIR SOFTWARE...

    Russians Love This Data Recovery Forum

    It seems that this forum must be particularly appealing to Russians. Look at these stats from Google Analytics: More visits from Russia in the last month than from the USA (which includes all my activitiy) If only more of these guys would join and not just lurk. We'd love to know who you all...

I'll adjust the post requirements as...

    Website Rip-Off

    Is it just me, or does it look like these guys totally ripped off the design of my homepage: http://www.dokterharddisk.com/ The similarity is uncanny. Or perhaps I ripped off their design without realizing it...... though I've never been there before five minutes ago...

    Google Place Page Reviews

    I think my local competitor keeps flagging all my legitimate reviews on my Google place page (very annoying). Meanwhile his are all fake, not one even has a real name attached to it. Anyway, I'm not going to take the low-road and start flagging his reviews (just in case it isn't him). However...

    FIREBrick Forensic Box

    Anyone here ever heard of this project? http://digitalfire.ucd.ie/?page_id=1011 It seems to be a custom BIOS flashed linux build which makes the computer strictly a write blocking forensic imaging tool. Perhaps it could be tweaked to make a homebrew hardware imager similar to DDI :?: Might...

    SATA Inline Write Blocker

    Anyone know of a good SATA to SATA write blocker? I've got USB ones, and those seem pretty common but I'm hoping to find just an inline one that keeps it a SATA connection. I'd like to be able to use it for a ddrescue station I use for drives with just a few bad sectors, and I'm always nervous...

    Google Knows Where You Are!!!

    I find it funny how people here are all up in arms about the government "spying" on their phone calls, when we willingly let Google have far more information. Just follow this link and adjust the time frame to 30 days: https://maps.google.com/locationhistory/b/0 Though I guess it could make a...

    Netgear X-RAID2 Data Recovery

    So I'm currently working on a Netgear X-RAID2 that was re-configured and lost the data in the process. Anyone have any idea what stripe size these typically use? Will take forever having to scan each time for the lost filesystem. Thanks!

    Huawei Phone NAND Encryption

    Does anyone know if Huawei Android phones encrypt the memory? I've got one here that's totally smashed and will definitely need chip-off. Just don't want to waste time if it's encrypted anyway.

    3Tb My Passport Ultra

    Looks like we'll soon be recovering data from 3Tb My Passports: http://store.wdc.com/store/wdus/en_US/p ... al_Storage Hopefully they'll be easier than the other 3Tb+ sized externals we've been seeing. :D Might help to cut down the number of people being duped into buying Seagate externals...

    Seagate Grenada ProcessRWError

    I've got this DM drive here that I'm now on my second head swap. First time it worked for a whole five minutes then shut down. This time it again ID'd when first powered on, was busy re-allocating sectors so I went in and disabled that in RAM which seemed to stabilize it. Then I stupidly went...

    Why is Data Recovery So Expensive?

    Here's a perfect example that illustrates why we need to charge a small fortune to make professional data recovery worthwhile to do. I get a job in that has bad heads, given it's history I tell them it has low odds of recovery but I'm I'm willing to try changing the heads if they approve my...
