Before reading please gather some common household tools and other implements of destruction.

Remember if a screwdriver works good a power drill will only work better.

    Very often they'll need some force to come off, but if you pry gently with some datachisels, it'll will work out for the best.

    datachisels ? LMAO ! I liked the name. And you know pretty much if the tech guy working on your computer pulls out a datachisel it aint gonna be pretty folks.

    Make sure that all fingerprints are wiped away so the surface looks shiny, clean, nice and good.
    Of course we only use the best products. Svinto is unbeatable when it comes to data service. (Svinto is a Swedish brand of Steel wool added with soap, ask for at your nearest convenience store)

    Lol Lol. much obliged for the laugh. :)

    We had to use a datachisel just the other day when the data hose got stuck in the switch. We finally got it out, but data spewed all over the floor until we could get the bit valve shut off. Thank goodness we had a good ethermop handy.

    We had a RAID 5.1 motherdisk group at work and I put it into our server in the wrong order. Lo and behold, the thing springs a major leak. We were up to our ankles in ones and zeros, and I spent days mopping up data and throwing it into the trash, because, you know, you can't very well use dirty data again.

    Needless to say, I spent a good week going around the office with the datachisel breaking off pieces of motherdisk to put back into the group. I then left the group on top of a magnet to realign the data into an order we could use.

    I owe all of my success to that article.

    Would data chisels be magnetic? Hmmm... Magnetic Data Chisels would own... Thats probably just beacause if I said, "I used my MDC to help defragment my Motherdisc after years of data corrosion, thanks to Outlook, IE, and Spam." it would make a great Macintosh comercial. :D
