But my advice is to mount a RAID arrange. That would be bulletproof.
No, it wouldn't. Deleting a file on RAID still means it's gone.

Exactly, as I've written before, I run "rm", so a RAID wouldn't improve anything. Ext3 instead of ext4 might improve something?!
I already run latest Parted Magic live CD and I still have to try one tool.
When you delete something from a filesystem then you should expect it to be gone, it will only be recoverable by chance or luck. Ext4 is an evolution of ext3 so recovering deleted files shouldn't be much different, on the other hand, day to day usage can benefit from using ext4 over ext3. Give testdisk a try, it might not be able to recover everything though, depending on what you've done to the fs after you deleted the files. -- Mauro Santos
