R-studio Technician is costing $80


It isn't.

Its too too costly for anyone


Solve one complex RAID case or some NAS case that can not be done with some other tool and it already paid for itself.

Yes for mid size data recovery companies who get regular raid recovery cases that is true. For smaller companies & individuals that is not the case.
Cheap cloud has replaced 90% of corporate work & servers . Recovery from SSD is not possible using any software /hardware.
You will have to renew subscription every year for a raid case which may come once in 4 years.
Considering changed business dynamics of DR industry this price is high.

you can use the sw version latest to your support period unlimited even after the support expired, you only need to buy new if you need the new features. At least that's how it worked in the past...

for RAID cases you can use UFS RAID, commercial license is 219 Euros. You're constantly muddying the waters by comparing non comparable products and scenarios. I am using it with a license that expired moths ago, I just need to be careful not to click "yeah let's get that latest update".

UFS Explorer pays for itself 5x in a year.
If you know what you're doing, that is.

What's new in version 10.21:
* Implemented hardware-assisted AES decryption on x86 platform (AES-NI) to speed up operations on encrypted storages;
* Fixed an 'infinite loop' bug on damaged 'thin' LVM and with cyclic references;
* In the 'Connected Media' manager: added support for single-disk Synology NAS configurations (to support Vault-based decryption);
* Fixed an issue with decryption of password-encrypted APFS volumes in some scenarios;
* Windows dynamic disks (NT LDM): added support for configurations created on GPT with a dedicated metadata partition at any offset;
* Added an embedded video player to support video preview for data verification;
- Playback of some older formats as well as ProRes is implemented via built-in decoders;
- Implemented support for third-party decoders via an OS-specific API to support rare and non-free formats (such as HEVC/h.265);
- Added support of MXF with ProRes and ARRIRAW stream formats;
* In the embedded photo viewer: fixed a bug with support for newer HEIC/HEIF photos (the function depends on installed HEVC/h.265 decoder);
* The document viewer was extended with support for a quick 'first page preview' for DOCX files;
* Fixed a bug reading FAT/FAT32 file systems where a damaged allocation table 'redirects' a folder to a large file.
