That truly blows dogs for quarters... but if you know somebody with the skills, maybe, just hopefully you could look into having that data recovered somewhat. Do you know exactly how it conked out?

Been there man, truly devastating. The lesson is to get a big-ass spindle and back-up everything. I too learned the hard way.

PCstats (which is a very good site about computers n stuff btw) did an article about HD data recovery.
Not sure if it'll help any but I thought you might want to give it a look.
My friend accidently formatted her backup drive once (kind of my fault ) and she managed to get pretty much everything back out again.
Well anyways, here's the link: http://www.pcstats.com/articleview.cfm?articleID=1139 good luck!

I feel your pain, man. I lost my hard drive a few years back to a nasty little virus. My girlfriend at the time had all of her work projects on there, She was piiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiisssed.
She turned out to be psychotic anyway, so it all worked out in the end.
