ACE Data Recovery

I had a FreeBSD ZFS filesystem that I thoroughly screwed up due to my own negligence. They wanted $1800 to recover it. They had to put another head and actuator in it to get anything at all. They were able to recover a lot of old stuff that I had old backups for, but couldn't recover the stuff from the last year when I had no backup. After a few months of trying they gave up and gave us the disk drive *and money* back.

I Highly recommend them.
