I have a 100 Meg zip disk that cannot be read. MAC disk first aid says b tree errors, but it cannot fix. Tried Disk warrior and Norton, neither one of those worked either. Any suggestions? Are all the files on disk lost? Thanks

Larry, If it contains vital data - I would suggest opening the yellow pages and tracking down an Apple Technical Centre - not a place that sells new Macs, but a place that deals soley in repairs (base level techicians) - as these centres often specialize in "data retreival". Some of them even have special equipment (not software) to pull the data off dead hard drives, Zip or Jaz disks. I have one close to me (here in Australia) called Xyber - who do nothing else but repair Mac hardware and retrieve data. With dead Zips, they actually dismantle the case, remove the disk media itself and implant it into another case with a fresh new spindle. Iomega is becoming synonymous with faulty Drives and faulty disks. I stopped using them around 4 years ago - their data integrity just stopped matching up with the high quality of the original SCSI 100 MB Zip Drive. Have now turned to external FireWire Drives, USB Drives, and CD-Rs. Take a gander at this possibility for the future: http://www.thumbdrive.com/ As for your current situation - definately seek out those specializing in Data Retrieval. cheers cw
