Spinrite. Pull the drive and put it in a PC. Boot the PC with Spinrite.
If it is recoverable, Spinrite will do it. Doesn't care about the OS or
file system. Will take hours or days. Consider using it on your spare
machine, since it will be tied up.

Does anyone have any thoughts on recovering files off a Brighthouse DVR?

Mine is saying "Unrecoverable Write Error".

It sucks to have lost the few episodes I recently taped, but REALLY sucks
'cause I lost 3 seasons of BSG that I've been saving and haven't watched
yet!

Anyhow, I wanted to see if anyone had any ideas before I have them replace
it.
Of course, this would all be hypothetical.
