I've asked this before, but nobody has replied. So I'd like to ask here. I've been on 1607 (Anniversary Update) until today when I finally received a message via update center that I can now update and move on to ver. 1703 (Creators Update). Anyway, after it was finished installing I noticed...

I've been on 1607 (Anniversary Update) until today when I finally received a message via update center that I can now update and move on to ver. 1703 (Creators Update). Anyway, after it was finished installing I noticed something. Right before installing 1703, I had 46.4 GB free of 190 GB on C...

Also, there's no forum on Seagate's website. Folks, is there anyone here who's registered on hardforum?

Thanks! I just chatted with the rep regarding this and she said this item is actually sold out. Bummer!

I've actually already posted a separate thread. I'll try the Seagate forum, thanks!

Thanks, esquared. I will. Any other places besides Anandtech you'd recommend posting?

I'm looking for a specific internal Seagate hard (not parts) drive. I've found a couple online, but it then turned out some websites were fake, while others advertised it when in fact it's already discontinued and they simply neglected to update their website. the hdd was either disc. I've...

I just received an email from a data recovery company basically saying that the reading heads have failed inside the hard drive, and in order to replace the reading heads inside the drive they have to locate an identical hard drive to mine. Sadly they have been unable to locate the matching...

Ah well, as long as you've considered it from all angles!

But don't you guys think that the difference of 7GB for that is quite significant?

Hey folks, I just noticed the second time (first time it happened I wasn’t completely sure) that the storage on my main OS (C) partition went up from 16 GB to 22.4 GB overnight. I got 512 GB SSD (two partitions) on my laptop (ASUS NX500) (Win 10). I don’t know which files had been removed...

I dropped it in the kitchen (we have marble floors) once. I bought an IDE to USB adapter so I could transfer the old files onto my new laptop, but from the looks of it I quickly realized that I would need to send it to a specialist for them to recover if not all, at least some of the data. Do...

@sn8ke, I've tried John The Ripper, but no luck there. It was too slow. I'll try RAR Password Recovery and see how it goes. @corkyg, It's my file. I have copied all the stuff that I had on my old IDE HDD and there is one file that I can't open. I don't know where I got it from cause that was...

Hey guys, Can you recommend any reputable companies who recover data from a hard drive? And also what are the going rates?

Is there any decent software (preferably free, but willing to pay for a good one) that I can use to unlock rar files? I remember downloading one a long time ago and it worked like a charm. Sadly I can't find it nor remember it's name. Tried downloading some online but they were rubbish...
