hey, i just started a new site recently,

http://www.redrival.com/thekonnection/data-recovery/index.html

its just an informative site about data recovery, with some good links to tools and good stuff like that. not selling anything, just some good data recovery help for people beginner to expert, and some good tools.

I've bookmarked it for further use. It looks interesting. You may want to get someone to do some editing for typos, the ones I noticed detracted from the site.

Good basic info, however I am reticent to use it with "Mortgage Leads Homepage - Free Leads" on the title bar.

IS it possible to recover the data from a raid 5 IDE array, if only 1 of the original drives is available???

Hi Network Andy. You need 2 of 3 drives in order to get all your data back. If you had a 5 disk RAID-5 you'd need 4 of 5. Basically RAID-5 buys you the ability to lose 1 drive, not 2. If you want your data back you'll need to go to someplace like ontrack, actionfront, gillware or drivesavers.. those guys probably will all charge at least a couple grand but they'd more than likely get your stuff back because they only need to repair 1 of 2 bad drives.
