those are YES
the rest i dono really but can be found from their forum i think

I think that thatdellguy is trying to bring attention to how far behind things are, and that SD will see this and do something or at least give feedback.

There is no way to bring SD attention...they don't replay on there's forum. They have one way communication, we complain they don't answer.

there service is free updates


new update coming for wd doctor in two months unlocked those drives that are password protected.

They will NEVER do.. or IF... will be too late.

you know they dropped a lot of software updates
and people are pi$$

got offered a flash doctor for $200


flash doctor dead as a dodo bird

maxtor drive dead as a dodo bird

hdd doctor setup $3,000

ouch money burn in your wallet

they more likely support the Asian market as they don't have to translate the programs into english

in 2 months, hehehe i heard this before 4 months
and unlocked those drives - this is really far too damn far publishing

last, good luck SD with their research which will be too late really


subject closed @ least for me

Fixing some bugs would take just few hours including test. If they were really interested, I would give them a complete report and the solution. Then they could recompile the installation package or the .exe for download.

Sadly, it’s going to come to a point where SD is so far behind its competitors that it can’t keep up and just disappears. Unfortunately, this time may have already passed with the lack of promised updates.

All I can say is, "you get what you pay for."

Can anybody say what the current update status is.

I might be interested in one of the products but going by the original post the last update was nearly 3 years ago.

There wasn't much but the list is updated.

How much are SD products at the moment?

Seems like they missed their own update / upgrade schedule again for Flashdoctor and maybe Datacompass

I think that the point is Luke, nobody actually got what they paid for, or were promised.....

Just my opinion - and experience...

"SalvationDATA will attend the Computer Forensic Show 2013"
"SalvationDATA Director Kenneth Liang will also appear at that show."
"Don't miss this opportunity to meet face-to-face with SalvationDATA decision maker in a relaxed setting."
http://www.salvationdata.com/news/20130419.htm

If your in NewYork and can attend, please ask Mr. Liang when he plans to update these cutting edge latest and greatest obsolete outdated tools.

maybe the relaxed setting extends to the dev and support departments. Im thinking "The I.T. Crowd".

I wouldn't trust anything Mr. Liang were to say anyway ! SD has proven time after time they are not interested in providing a quality product or quality support and software updates updated manuals to any of their products. They have proven time after time with their own posts in their own forum and press releases about software updates that never have been released up to today. I guess we can all hold our breath and see a slew of releases at the show ? I wouldn't take that bet myself. They sure want to sell you their products its a scam ! They celebrate getting one over on you ! That's the culture of their business.
