My name is Petri.
I am in the data recovery industry. Been working on recovering data from digital storage devices for 7+ years. I am currently in the Greater Boston Area.
Currently using a couple of 8TB SMR Seagate Archive model drive for longer term archive storage.
Matter of fact, in the few rounds of surface testing to see how it holds up, it seems to develop slow reads quite early. Still new technology in production, therefore not much data available to analyze as far as reliability goes.
Definitely not designed for RAIDs or anything performance oriented.
@DustinB3403 Hi. Out of curiosity, what company did you send the Lacie for recovery?
@DustinB3403 Great, whatever works for you. Lacie drives are a pain though as most contain Seagate drives inside. And certain Seagate series are really problematic. I specialize in advanced data recovery, where the trivial software attempt to scan a drive and list the file directory structure is unsuccessful. I am in the Greater Boston Area. Let me know if you need help. We provide free consultation and evaluation. Have cleanroom environment and all the fancy advanced toys. Thanks for replying.
Winhex (paid only for cloning) is the best cloning software tool I have used.

Just finished Relentless by Tim Grover. Really good book on success mindset and motivation.

@scottalanmiller Very nice website. And it sure is fast. Have difficulty changing profile photo. Is it because I am new?
