Damn, skaven. Might be worth a shot if for nothing else than a learning experience. Although, if you really need the data, Id just save up for a recovery service.
In my experience, the best backup system is an external hard drive, or if you have multiple machines, a network file server. Very easy to set up--I have an old P3 800 that I threw a 160GB drive into and installed linux and samba. All my other machines now back up over the network to that box every night. Works pretty well.
