find in internet got software to recover HDD.. but i'm not too sure it's free or paid.. as i remember it's paid..

Hi, i currently have an 80GB used as external. I plan to put it in my desktop which currently has 40GB. I tried the other day but the 80GB shows as 30GB. If i'm not mistaken, we need to install smtg right? Btw, it's a Maxtor Diamond Max

Edit: Problem solved.

Hi guys, I have a tricky situation here.

I have a 36g raptor as the OS drive, and i have a few other drives of different sizes for storage purposes. What happened was out of a sudden this afternoon after i saved a 2.1mb sized photo from the net, my computer suddenly froze and unfroze continuously (for example if you're trying to move your mouse cursor from left side of the screen to the right, the cursor will stop after moving a few cm, move again, stop again, move again until it finally reaches the right side).

After that happened(and the computer was lagging/freezing quite badly) I rebooted to try to solve the problem. As the computer rebooted, it went to chkdsk and froze a few times there while trying to remove some corrupted files and indexes. So i hard rebooted a few times more. And it froze a few times more until I finally managed to get into windows. Once I try to access data from the same harddisk, the same freeze-unfreeze thing happened. I then tried to boot in safe mode.

What happened now is that after I managed to get into safe mode, things were accessible, under disk management the harddisk was shown as having full capacity, but at my computer it showed as having 120gb or so of free space(which means my data is still there i presume). As a last ditch attempt I tried salvaging and copying data, but I could only copy very little of it. Also, as I copied the files a dialogue box saying something like 'F:/$MFT cant be saved. Could be caused by network connection loss or hardware failure' appeared repeatedly just above the system tray.

Now my problem is that harddisk is the most important one in my computer, filled with bucketload of songs and craploads of photos from yesteryear. I'm not sure what the problem is but the most important data would be my photos, and I hope all of them can be recovered as none of my friends have the raw photo files.

What should I do guys? Is there a software I can try to use to recover the files, or do I have to pay through my nose for hardware recovery? Thanks in advance and sorry for the length

EDIT: Thanks to sunmenghao's suggestion I've managed to recover around 90% of the files using GetDataBack. Decided to chuck the problematic hdd away and replace it with a new one. And added a backup drive just for safety's sake

Hello guys! Same problem too!
I took her hard disk, put it in my PC, and suprisingly, i could read it..
I backed all the data into my exit had and passed it back to her.
Back home my friend plugged her had back into her drive and yet she couldn't do anything. So she reformatted it...and retrieved her data from my had. But I'm totally curious, why can i read it when she can't?

Thanks!

I honestly hope you bought that software.

Hello to everyone,

I have a problem with my External Hard Drive. I've been using it for the pass 2 years but suddenly it failed to be recognized. Every time I click the hard disk via My Computer it says i/o device error. Is there a way to retrieve my files & important documents from the Hard Disk? Surprisingly I can connect the External Hard Drive to My PS3 to watch videos. Could someone please provide me a solution? It would be most appreciated.

try to use a software call "GetData Back", it might be useful to recover your important data

I still can't retrieve it. Sigh I guess I lost all the files from the hardisk I guess.

I have 2 partition on my external harddisk. but only now i realize that one of the partition is not showing on 'My Computer'. when i check with disk management, the partition is still there. Here I attach the screenshot:





When i use Active@ PArtition recovery, the lost partition is known as "new volume(1:)" and shows all the file in that partition.

Can someone please help me to retirieve back my partition and data. All of my portfolio is in there..

our company provide data recovery services, but it will cost u rm200 per time testing whether the HD still can recover or nt, do u hav interest on this?
