I need a solid recommendation for recovery on this drive in US. From the searches I have performed on this forum it appears the Samsung Drive is a difficult one to recover. I don't want to send yet another drive to Kroll Ontrack and be told it's not recoverable. The drive spins up makes 12 clicks then spins down.

Samsungs are just like other vendors if you know what to do... and effectively some failures/drives are not recoverable.

Agree with BlackST, Samsung usually recoverable OK except in some cases of platter damage or "DIY gone wrong" :-)

The first drive I ever 'recovered' was a Samsung 500GB. It was the TVS :lol: haha what were the chances. Luck was on my side :wink:

I work for a recovery company and do not accept submissions personally anymore. Thanks for the vote of confidence though :wink:
