Question Recovering lost folders/files data

Hello,

Is there a way to recover data from a SCO UNIXWARE 7.4 operating system without using a tape backup device?

We believe there is some data in some directories that was there once; but not anymore, we don't have a backup on tape.

So, is there any other solution to recover?

Hope someone can help.

Looking forward to your answers.

Thank you
