Thanks @Spildit
what recommended me to buy pc3000 , MRT, or SeDiv?
for now i'm not able to decide!


PC-3000+DE but it's VERY EXPENSIVE (more than $6000 USD depending from where you live). If you don't have $$$ to buy it you can buy MRTLab tool instead. It's cheaper.

SeDiv will only work with Seagate+WD, Hitachi and Toshiba. It's not "hardware" assisted and doesn't have a powerfull hardware cloning tool. The fact that is not "hardware assisted" is bad because if you plug a damaged drive, for example, that keeps bsy and causes your computer to freeze and crash, you will not be able to work with it with the SeDiv while if you have a hardware assisted tool it will be between the drive and the motherboard, it will handle the drive state and keep the computer motherboard "happy" even if the drive is not cooperating :)

Of course that you can allways use the "pirated" way. That is pirated PC-3000 card + legal SeDiv. But you will still lack the "DE" portion of it (cloning tool/logic recovery).

Greetings form the Inland Empire is Southern California, USA ... :D

I have been reading posts regarding Mach8er4life's Topic Requesting Information about PC-3000

digitalferret's response is quite impressive (below) but I am not certain it addresses

PC3000 is industry standard DR gear.

is this hardware easy to learn
No

will it meet our wants
Yes :) *seriously, what are your "wants".

Quote:
If people using this could provide some useful feature lists


3 Major players if you read thro forum there is plenty of info.

Deepspar : drive imager, can cope with bad sectors and drive instability. relatively "plug in and go" with tweaks. PCI card and portable.

Atola: similar spec, standalone units connect to PC for control. Covers some firmware issues etc.
Similarly built for ease of use.

Ace laboratories: The Daddy. More expensive, not intuitive, limits to licensing some people find un-attractive.
PCI and portable. Needs experienced Tech/Eng to get the best out of it, and likely some form of training.

If you are wanting to "keep the lid on" with regards to DR then Atola / Deepspar would suffice.

Lid off and cover as many bases as possible? Acelabs. (also produce SSD/NAND gear)
"Lid off" will also require a good deal more equipment.

Feature lists?
Why not just give any of the guys a call or drop an email. They all have some form of website and literature, are more than happy to offer pre-sales advice and their standard of English is excellent.


I have examined all of the above products in depth and find that I must say that the Data Recovery business equipment expense is not for the weak at heart. An analogy... I would say without an expensive tire changing machine ... one would find changing automobile tires nearly impossible. Use the right tool for the job !

After attending two (2) different ACE Laboratory Conferences my response is simple .... The ACE PC-3000 (PC3k) Family of equipment covers all data recovery bases ... From simple PATA hard drive recovery through SCSI to RAID and FLASH to SSD's.

Ace Laboratory is a one-stop-shop ....

But there is more ... ACE Tech support is unparalleled in the industry and product software with techniques constantly updated to reflect latest technology updates and procedures.... In-depth training is also available.

I seriously believe there is NOT another organization on this planet that can or has provided the Data Recovery Industry with the quality products, training and technical support necessary to support a Data Recovery Enterprise.

The PC-3000 is the right tool .... I have been using them for years :) and expect to continue ...

I simply mentioned that it's s good advert. Nothing more, nothing less.

We all know PC3000 is the best "Public" hardware/software product...

Ok, so a lot changed on this post while i typed my response : however to the original OP.

if I could provide my newly formed knowledge, similar situation to yours perhaps, being new to this industry. It is however an opinion, please take it as such.

PC-3000 first and best.
Deep-Spa second + R-Studio
MRT-Pro third for the easier stuff that might take up time on the PC-3000 unnecessarily. Will give hassles from time to time. Some feature that doesn't work as expected or HDD (family) not quite supported (fully).
