Three copies in the same box and no where else is vulnerable in all sorts of ways: fire, lightning, and theft are obviously as damaging as braindead repair technicians.

Er yes. May I introduce people to the concept of "off site backups"? Just consider what happens if you have a fire. Magnetic media in fire-proof safes will melt and be unusable (ref: Mercantile Credit Company, head office fire a few years ago).

On a more postitive note, with regard to the undelete, have you tried the "Fix It Utilities"? I don't know if they will do it, but they have an undelete facility. Just remember, DO NOT install anything onto the disk you want to reciver from, until you have recovered all data you want to/can.
