FRTree was the only one getting my lost partitions (Score 1)

I am totally agree that the article looked as an commercial, however I have had a insidence about a year ago where the FRTREE product was the only program managing to find my information again.

I tried:
Norton disk doctor 2000 (totally hopless)
Norton disk editor (failed to detect any partitions)
Nuts and bolts (faled misserably)
Stellar (no luck there)
I also tried a slew of other solutions without luck. When trying FRTREE i only tried their demo version and it found my partitions without problems, however did not want to recover them without buying the actual product. I noted however that it gave me the LBA values, and calculated the correct location of my partitions based on that.

Then I used Ransih partition manager and gave it the information I got from FRTREE, whoala : all partitions recovered without dataloss!

(It should be noted that I did make a copy of the physical disk before doing all this...)
