QUOTE(adbacc @ Aug 22 2011, 10:42 PM) Depends on the damage. File system damage but still physically functioning hard disk can still have a chance to be recovered by recovery software. IF the drive cannot even start (mechanical failure), then recovery software won't help, need to resort to data recovery services well, was watching movie, then accidentally knocked it down. then it hang. tried restarting the pc, and plug in back the hard disk. it can detect the drive, but when i click, it says need to format. can still be repair? before damage, in 'My Computer' it will say this ---> Zanarkard (F:) after damage ---- > Local Disk (F:) and when i click, it says not accessible, then say need to format. T_T. got 300GB worth of files...... Added on August 22, 2011, 11:12 pm QUOTE(adbacc @ Aug 22 2011, 10:42 PM) Depends on the damage.

QUOTE(adbacc @ Aug 22 2011, 11:49 PM) If your hard disk has just a few folders, try ZAR, select recover 'current files' (demo version limits 4 folders per recovery, then need to rescanning and recover another 4 folders...) Managed to recover already using testdisk. Thank god. Looks like bad sector problem....Also note you need space to put the 'recovered files' onto another drive that is not the 'problem drive' |
