I apologize if this is not the appropriate forum, but I’m in a world of hurt.

Does anyone, by chance, know of an inexpensive data recovery service for external hard drives? I have a 1TB drive with a seized motor which means they need to manually line up the plates. The quotes I’m getting back to recover the data is ~$1,400. That’s way too much for my pocket book, so I’m hoping someone knows of some place that can recover data on the cheap.

Thanks,
Scott

PS – Yes, I was very stupid for not having my data backed up. Stupid me, stupid me, stupid me.
