&gt; It is not a simple topic and I don't know of any comprehensive training.
&gt;
&gt; My company does computer forensics (CF), and as a sideline we end up
&gt; having data recovery capabilities.
&gt;
&gt; If we are trying to recover deleted files, or even file fragments, we
&gt; normally use FTK.  It is CF software and training is available.  (Maybe
&gt; even at Kennesaw, they have CF classes I think.)  Neither FTK nor the
&gt; company training are low-cost.  I don't know what Kennesaw charges, but
&gt; they host a national CF seminar in March.
&gt;
&gt; FTK does not do well if the logical filesystem structure is corrupted,
&gt; but even then it can get back individual disk clusters based on keyword
&gt; searches.  I have used it to recover files from drives with a
&gt; significant number of badblocks.  [Often in those cases, you cannot just
&gt; use windows to copy of the files.]
&gt;
&gt; There are some Linux based computer forensic tools you could look into.
&gt; I think most of the good tools are on the Penguin-slueth CD.
&gt;

&gt;
&gt; So far we have only used that CD as a boot CD to make dd images of
&gt; suspect drives, but supposidely there are some good recovery tools on
&gt; there.
&gt;
&gt; Raid system recovery can be much more difficult.
