2: A few of
the Jasmine techs got together and formed a company, that
was one of the first in a soon to grow industry of Data Recovery
services of hard drives. They formed the company "Drive Savers" which
advertises to this day in the back of most Mac magazines.
And I thought Ontrack
were the first...
I can't say who was THE first, but I know Drive Savers was very early in
the game. I would assume there were a few companies before them, probably
some that carried over from recovering data on floppies, tapes, and other
pre hard drive storage media.
