The ears are the best tool for data recovery.

Sometimes with the assistance of a stethoscope the ears will nearly always give the path to be taken to successful data recovery.

Not using the ears as the first and primary tool can be costly.

you need a combination of :
- Aptitude to learn how to learn about DR. read that a few times and it will make sense!
- Patience and ability to think first and act when you are pretty sure you know what those actions will do.
- Experience. Experience alone can dictate a path when all other influences lead elsewhere.
- help. Without help from our peers, I think a lot of jobs wouldn't be successful. Sometimes the comradery-ship alone will keep us going and interested in a job long enough to solve, even if the other people didn't technically provide info.
- Motivation. how many jobs do you have sitting in a box where you have pulled it to bits, but the motivation is not there to hook up that logic analyser or JTAG?
- to be able to pull resources together, not just expect answers from one or 2 sources

a combination of a lot of things will separate the good DR person to a GURU.
IMHO :)

:) yeah true. from my side i would like to say everything is important by its role.everything...
lets suppose if you are a good Dr and having everything like pc3k,firmwares,soldering iron,station,but just don't have a torx screw driver and patient drive came with burnt card and screw is slipped :) at this point you will know the value of a screw driver although you have a scientific lab and you are a good ,trained ,expert.... but fail. so we can say this a combination of things and resources make solution. :lol:
