C300: Data readability after recovery

[indiawilds]

My G-RAID crashed with some important files shot with C 300 for my own film under production. And to my horror I found that some of my important folders have not been backed up. Now I have to pay a huge amount to recover.

The question is, after recovery of the C-300 files, will I be able to read it?

C-300 files require the folder structure to be intact. So if the data recovery company recovers the files, will I be able to read those through Canon XF utility and FCPX? Your thoughts and suggestions will be highly appreciated.

I don't have any specific data recovery stories about the C300. But I have done my own recovery on P2 and 5D MKIII files using Data Rescue 3 and have paid pros to recover corrupt audio files. In both cases, only partial recovery was possible, all hierarchy and subfolders were unrecoverable as were a good portion of the files. Wish I had better news for you, hopefully you will have different results. YMMV. Good luck!
