    Any informed opinions?
    Has anyone seen any recent reviews or test results?

    Hey drhu22
    I do not have any practical experience when it comes to DriveSentry, but I can at least give you a link to a test of DriveSentry 3.4.0.20 done by Languy99. Hope that it can help and provide some information: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fa0PL7Xk6lo
    Best Regards :)

    DriveSentry is dead.

    I wish someone with a good track record would acquire the rights (patent if one/any exist) and restart development.
    I believe there could be a place for it.

    They are obviously still charging people for the product. See December 2010 on the download link and price to purchase.

    Definitely dead, being continued, or someone's last ditch at recouping investment costs?

    when they say 2-3 weeks count on 5-6 months as per past experiences, never had a problem with em though.

    I would advice them to use a 'quite blonde' avatar again.
    It worked brilliant last time. (Katie is gone though guys, so don't get your hopes up ;))
