I've searched for an answer in the DUC. But I suppose my search terms are so generic.........I get too many results to reasonably read......

A friend dragged a session to the trash and then emptied it. Will anything (I've found the software called Data Rescue that offers a demo) undelete the audio files as long as he stops using the drive so as not to overwrite that area? Seems like I recall reading very old posts about this years ago and Pro Tools audio files were generally considered un-recoverable. Is this true? This isn't something that would be worth sending to a company that restores drives. And it wouldn't hurt to try the demo of Data Rescue on his drive. I was just wondering if anyone had already been through this before I have him try it.
