| Post subject: | Atola or PC3000? |
I own a data recovery company in Nebraska and I have novice knowledge of the technical side of data recovery. I can swap heads, follow scripted commands to work with firmware, etc... I lost my senior data recovery technician recently and I have stepped in to learn the basics and get a new engineer started before we send him off for more advanced training. We currently have a ddi4 which is amazing. We also have a wide assortment of Salvation Data products which I am currently frustrated with. I know the PC3000 is highly recommended but I also noticed that the marketing materials for the Atola Insight make it sound like a fire and forget firmware fixing machine. I am curious to know what you guys think of the Atila Insight vs the PC3000. Having a great shell to automate come of the firmware commands would be extremely helpful for me in the short run, but I don't want to hobble us with an expensive automated solution if it will imit what we can do later with more training. Any thoughts? |

Automatic firmware recovery in Atola Insight only supports a limited set of drives. From http://atola.com/products/insight/supported-drives.html : Quote: Automatic firmware recovery works for the following models: All Toshiba hard drives Most Fujitsu hard drives "Pre-Marvell" Western Digital drives (based on a WD CPU) We have stopped focusing on firmware issues when they became a rarity. By no means I want to stop you from buying Atola Insight, however, if your focus is strictly firmware then PC-3000 will be a better choice for now. |
