Data recovery for Macintosh. Focusing on data recovery, not hard drive repair, Data Rescue can recover data from a corrupt drive, even if it no longer mounts. Data Rescue does not write to your damaged hard disk, instead it writes your files to a second drive - ensuring that your data can be restored without further damage. There are three different versions of the rescue software (II, Classic & Legacy).
The license was paid for by the College of Fine Arts, but the Office of Information Technology will be handling the distribution of the licenses and media.
