I don't know anything about DFL, but Vlad_1's Marvell utility appears to be his original work.

Kamen,
Russian soul is not understood.
He does, and puts the utility for free.
Who reads a Russian forum.
It can read, as I argued against it.
But to no avail.

"DFL_WDII Firmware Repair Hardware Tool-Shipping Cost Included - $650.00":
http://www.datarecoverytools.co.uk/stor ... dware-tool

User Manual (not very detailed):
http://www.datarecoverytools.co.uk/drsd ... Manual.rar

The following article seems to suggest that "NHPA-recover the LBA of original disk" is a "unique feature": :?
http://www.datarecoverytools.co.uk/2012 ... -recovery/

BTW, I can't find any pricing on the Ace Labs web site (I can see an "Order Now" link, but no prices"), so if anyone is going to bag the suppliers of the DFL tool on that basis, then they should do the same for Ace Labs.


Thanks for the link when I first entered the product name into "google" the website I came to this site http://www.datarecoverytools4u.com/free-quote/ and filled out the form again still no response. I assume your link is for a re-seller of the product. I have emailed ACE in the past for quote and got a response the next day. I agree pricing is not on the Ace site and should be. Seems like several here enjoy success using the device the price is similar to SD it even looks like SD. Looks like a duck walks like a duck must be a duck ? or a clone of a duck.

I got the dfl-wdii from http://www.datarecoverytools4u.com/prod ... -dfl-wdii/, the price is already listed there and i didn't find any 650$ offer, I spent about usd680 by paypal and they said I need to bear the transfer cost paypal charges.

but luckily, the tool is not disappointing me, it does many sd wd doctor cannot do and they promised to give discount to their new Data Extractor.
