Diagnose/Repair Your Seagate Or Maxtor Drive With SeaTools

By Nakodari | Published: July 23, 2009

Seagate and Maxtor, both are popular brands for Internal and External drives. If you are one of those users who own a drive that is made by any of the above two companies and is not working properly, then you can diagnose the drives with SeaTools. It supports non-Seagate drives as well, but in my testing it worked better with Seagate and Maxtor drives largely because it has been developed by Seagate itself.

By Nakodari | Published: May 7, 2009

Your Microsoft Office Word 2007/2010 documents or Excel 2007/2010 spreadsheets could get corrupted due to various reasons, two of the most common being data transfer error and hard disk crash. Once your documents get corrupted, it becomes quite difficult to recover them. Try opening a corrupt Microsoft document and you will receive an error that data is corrupt, which does not help us in any way. There are two ways to recover Word and Excel files, the first method is to buy an expensive recovery suite(which I would not recommend), and the second method, is below.

To recover Word 2007 documents we will use Damaged docx2txt.

How To Recover Data From Scratched Or Damaged Dvds/Cds

By Asad | Published: September 30, 2008

One of my favorite TV shows is The office. I love that show but it also takes up a lot of the hard drive space, with each episode of 350MB. I clutter my hard drive space due to this show, and that’s just this one show, not including other shows like Grey’s Anatomy or Supernatural. So, naturally I burn the shows onto DVDs, as it’s a cheap and easily accessible way to store data. But the only problem is the fact that CDs or DVDs aren’t invulnerable to all types of damage, and in fact, even a small finger print or scratch can make a DVD/CD player not able to read the disk. If you try to copy/paste the file on the damaged disk onto a computer, you usually get an error saying the file is corrupted, or damaged. But I found some really handy programs that can solve such problems, which I thought I’d share with you all today.
