[UniMacTech] Directory failure - lost files - recovery tool suggestions

[Nicholas English]

Hi All,
Looking for recommendations on retrieving files on an external HDD ­ not
covered by Time Machine, I know! I know!! That lost their folders.
I¹ve now read about the Œdocumented¹ enhancement in OSX 10.5 where by
disrupting a file transfer can corrupt the folder structure and ... Now you
se now you don¹t files are out of reach
HDD is HFS+ format and I¹m looking for tools to recover the lost files ­ now
changes have been written to the drive since so fingers crossed they¹re
still there.

I haven¹t had much luck and there are no local distributors of DiskWarrior
or TechToolsPro so I¹d have to Œwait for the freight¹ - it¹s a Darwin thing!
Any OS recommendations, please.

regards 
Nicholas English
