I didn't forget you. I've gone through a lot of old hard drives, and will probably find some more.
What I'm running into is, ah, let me go back a byte Heh.
~1995 I started building my own hot rod computers and see just how fast I could run 'em, overclocking and crunching various intense computational science programs. Most folks who overclock to the max do it on a dedicated computer, but not me Heh; I use my "daily driver". Max overclocking crashes computers (that's how you know you went to far with one of the various parameters then drop down and try a different angle), and crashes do bad things; to software and hardware.
I lost a few hard drives but, as Steve Gibson says: If it's spinning, you can recover at least some data with software. I use GetBack (and any pc user should have all the wonderful Resplendent Software free tools).
Now, this is what I'm finding (on the undamaged old drives) in the Recovered Data folders; these are from 2000:

The two files with the "pretty pictures" were unrecoverable--
in some folders only one or two files were recovered...

How fortuitous.
About 6 months ago I found an article about a redwood chimera,
and I filed it away so good I just had to go look it up again;
and there's a whole buncha new stories about it--

Bummer. Strange you can get a preview of the photos, but not open them. How's that work I wonder?
The older I get;Keep digging for that gold, Geologic! Hope you find the drives you're talking about and that the data is intact. Those files are akin to treasure. Everything like this should be kept for posterity and in the name of science. :)

Thanks geo, that's 99% camera and 1% me. I just point-and-shoot with a 42mp slr and end up with usually a good part to cut out :)nice photography...
