My dog did it in. Fell over and screeched to a halt.

- Thanks--their estimate for "standard" recovery (5-7 days) was $500-2700, with a minimum charge of $200 if unrecoverable.

Buyers Beware!!!! I should have my head examined for purchasing this idiotic drive for a backup. It is designed to be knocked over, standing vertially upright, and as I said, my dog knocked it over, and it screeched to a halt. Bu-bye data. I am most annoyed that I was not informed that if it fell over, everything could be permanently lost. Cheap, yeah, but an online backup like Mozy charges $4.95/mo for unlimited data storage,and it is there if your house and computer burn down.

Anyone have the skills to tinker with recovery? My pockets are not deep enough for a professional.
