| 9 platters from 3 different hard drives jumbled together with no idea which platter belongs to which drive. |

Quoted: Not something the average Joe could do, but for some data recovery specialists, I would say "Yes" as long as the platters aren't damaged..... What I've heard is no. Once the platters in a drive are moved relative to each other the sector alignment no longer matches between the platters. You could probably read a platter, but would only get snippets of data at best.  |
