        I think what this thread of conversation does ultimately show
        though is that you need to have a selection of devices/tools at
        your disposal in order to effectively perform data recovery,
        because any single method won't work at all times.

        Here I have several different USB bridge/adapters, a couple of
        eSATA ones and of course two or three different systems I can
        plug SATA directly in to. . . and a big pot of "lucky dust" for
        ensuring I get the data off for clients before the drive starts
        -110's on me.

        :)
