Some of you may remember me posting a few months back, looking for
someone with a PARIS studio, and maybe a bit of data recovery
experience. A gentleman responded to me via email, and I have lost the
message. A data recovery person would be fine, but I just thought I
would shoot for someone who would be sensitive to my situation, and
maybe not charge me 3 grand. If you are the Texan who responded, by all
means, tell me!
I sold my entire studio a few years back, and kept only a SCSI drive
full of unmixed songs and bits of ideas. The drive spins but will not be
detected by windows. i have tried multiple SCSI adapters, booting into
Linux, etc. GRUB gives geometry errors. I just want the 30 or so Gigs
copied to a SATA drive. It's probably 99% garbage, but there is some
stuff that I'm sentimental about buried on there somewhere. i need the
whole file structure copied over. It's also important that I don't risk
any more (?) damage to the drive.
If anyone is interested, please let me know.
If you are in the Portland, OR area, that would be a huge plus. I could
pay a fee up front, and if it works, give you more.
here is some info on the drive
IBM Ultrastar 36Z15 Drive, model# ic35l036ucpr15-0. This is the 36.7 GB,
15,000 RPM unit. (80p ULTRA 3 SCSI)
I had to get an ultra 160 controller
and sca adapter 80 pin to SCSI 3
(with power)
Not sure what you would need. I know jack about SCSI. It may just be a
jumper setting, in which case you could make some quick cash. I think
it's probably more though. If you are local, know about jumpers, and
what all that parity and stuff means, I'd be more than happy to give you
50 bucks to try it out.
coldstatue att geeeemail dat commm (first part is correct)
Thanks
