Disk Recovery Specialist Needed
A friend has had a 250Gb Firewire hard drive fail. The drive contains video data that he’s anxious to get back. We’ve established that it’s not the cable, hub, or machine it’s connected to. He’s looking for someone in Utah who can help recover the data. If you know someone good, send me a note.

Utah Disaster Kleenup, just north of the point of the mountain in Draper, does hard drive recovery. We used them when I worked on campus and they were pretty successful. Talk to Brian Freshwater at 801-553-1010.

It could be the interface in the enclosure.
The first thing you might want to do is open up the enclosure and pull the drive out. It's probably just an IDE drive. Stick it in another enclosure or in your PC and see if that works. If it doesn't, then call someone.
