Data Recovery for SCO OpenServer

They are right - describe the problem better and dont try anything until you have a clear idea

If it is a hardware failure (weird noise etc.) then you have limited options. And limited time. The pros can open the drive and recover things from the platters so no further damage happens to them - but as you can imagine that is expensive since they are building a temporary hard drive by hand....

If it is NOT a hardware failure but more an issue of "i was trying to resize partitions/defrag/encrypt/delete and something went wrong" then there are a whole lot of tools that might help

I have messed hard drives more times than not in my life - installing other OSes, messing with partition tools, even using a defrag tool once - these kind of issues can usually be recovered, although sometimes it is a lot of work...
