 I'm Happy... August 5, 2008
I mistakenly did a system restore and lost all my files. I downloaded this program and I have to say, I got back around 60-75% of my files - which is better than nothing. I think the IT guy review refers to the fact that the program picks up A LOT of crap! While reviewing JPEGs there was a lot of Microsoft stuff that was "saved", lots of small icons/pictures that were from the web or software I installed...letters from different fonts and all sorts of useless information that I had no idea where it had come from.
I had a lot of video files that I haven't viewed in years and that I thought I deleted off my computer that turned up (for those looking for lost video). I was really looking for my MP3s. I think it found most of the songs that I had recently done something with - burned to a CD or put on my MP3 player.
Overall, I can't say this product was a waste. I did get some of my stuff back and I felt better knowing I had done all I could to get my stuff back. I noticed some people's computers crashed so maybe that was why they got everything back.
 Excellent Program August 1, 2008
My new laptop crashed, taking with it all of my family photo files. I was heartbroken. I called a few companies that offer data recovery services and got prices ranging from $500 to $2,000, without a guarantee of retrieving any files! I bought this program and got back about 95% of my missing files.
It's an amazing program.
Try this FIRST!! July 17, 2008
I accidentally wiped my external hard drive clean erasing home videos that were priceless to me and my family. In a panic I called companies to see what they would charge to recover the items and I was told $500 to $1500 but I wouldn't get a firm price until the hard-drive was delivered to them. So I asked around and searched for other options and purchased this product. Thank god I did. I recovered everything I lost, which is the important part! The only gripe I have is it took over 48 hours to recover my items and I had to save over 5000 items individually, but I got the items back and it only costs me about $50. Try it before you spend a ridiculous amount of money on a recovery company.
Recovered most files off crashed hard drive January 14, 2008

I think this is an excellent product. My laptop hard drive crashed. I put it in a USB enclosure and bought RMF after reading reviews. It has a high rating, and I think it deserves it. I was able to recover most of my files off a drive with thousands of disk read errors.
A prior amazon review indicated that they got an old version from amazon.com and to pay more and get the most recent version. I was able to download the free upgrade to the latest version.
Because my hard drive had was bad, producing thousands of disk read errors, the recovery took a long time. It seams that each disk error has several seconds of retry. But stopping the scan after a sufficient amount of time, did cause the program to proceed. It would be nice if the delay (retry reads?) that occurs with each disk read error, could be reduced. I suspect that this is at a low level and may not be within RMFs control.
I was quite impressed that I was able to recover files off of this bad drive.
Recover My Files August 9, 2007

I would have given this product a 5 star, however, the version that came from Amazon is an older version and when I ran it, it took 4 days instead of the 8 hours that it took me to run the latest version downloaded from the GetData website. I ended up returning it and downloaded the latest and it took me less because when I try to save, it took forever to do anything since it ate up all of my virtual memory from the machine.
To be fair, the latest version recovered all the files that I lost (I reformatted my HD accidently through recovering from a crash). I would still recommend it but I would get the latest even if you had to pay a little more.
