Thanks, I might give that a try. Do you have a resource for the part numbers? I thought it said on mine that it was Version 2.0, so wondering if a new version will be compatible.

The other option I considered was if I could get the HDD out, I could run a utility for undeleting files; assuming I could read the drive.

Thanks for your help!

I was able to finally download that torrent, burned it to a disk. When I put the disk into a CD Drive on a windoze 7 laptop, it shows up as full, no room to write, but there are no files listed.

That is the same thing I get when I try the map cd's. Is that normal?

And I get the same error when I put it into tray #1 on the 6 CD changer in the Pajero. Any suggestions?

Connect the drive as an external one to a machine running your Linux distro of choice, I run Mint (natively as I like the build quality and ease of upgrading the hardware, but cannot get away with Mac OS) on my MacBook Pro but Ubuntu, Debian and Suse are all equally suitable for running effective - open source - recovery software as I should think are Red Hat and the other popular ones. Kali (a distro primarily aimed at those who need it for penetration testing, so comes packaged with several suitable apps) is the most capable but for those who prefer a UI to the command line terminal, stick with the distros that appear in the top half dozen or so of the chart on https://distrowatch.com/ .

I've restored the HDD from the (Windows CE) Clarion head unit that came from my Toyota. It was a JDM set and as such, couldn't be set up easily with UK maps, language support or audio codecs for FLAC or video formats other than avi.
Initially, I assumed that a device running CE would communicate with a laptop that I keep to run Win 2K for this sort of thing in cases of laptop HDDs that need to be repaired, but it was only recuva (running under Mint in this case) that would do the job. The Windoze version of the same software wouldn't even recognise the drive.
