Re: restoring data from a hw-defective reiserfs 3.6 disk?

[Redeeman <redeeman@metanurb.dk>]

there is a way you can do something yourself, but ONLY try if you dont
find some experts.

i have done this before.

you buy an hd equally to the one that died, and then you open them
CAREFULLY, and switch the plates with data, but be extremely careful,
and then it should work if it was the motor or the print itself.

good luck!
