Hey, John, they make these cool things called Uninterruptible Power Supplies. ::-) Jonathan

Pig-Pin of Charlie Brown friends has nothing on me. There is no way to handle this. The first scan took close to 4 days, to tell me that was only a portion of the disk? The disk wasn’t partitions so

My one day to sleep in, however I knew 5:00 a.m. was supposed to be the completion of DISCOVERY by DiskDrill and I was going to see if any of the family jewels had been recovered, so up at 6:00,

Lee, I stand by my statement, I appreciate all your input. John

Thanks! But you have a low amazement threshold. One thing I forgot to mention is something I find amazing. Run Disk Utility and select the data volume of your main hard drive. If you do a File>Get
