Recovering facts from broken rock-hard disks?
I got a broken fence disk (not physically). Even though I can still see the volume letter contained by 'My Computer', whenever I attempt to open it, a pop up message keep popping out, asking me to whether I want to reformat this disk or not.
To me, it seemed that the fence is ruined and requires formatting. Is there another agency to fix this?
If I havta reformat it, any way for me to retrieve and verbs data into another disk space?
Try burning an Ubuntu live compact disc and booting from that. See if you can access the corrupted drive in that. If you can't, than there's nil you can do because the data on the drive is also corrupted. Even if you did copy the contents, they'd be no well brought-up.
Try Ubuntu like the first answerer said, it's not completely hopeless. Moreover, you can try some background recovery softwares available online, http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&sourc… All the best and Happy Computing.
"> I will assume that your partition is/was originally formatted near NTFS, the common format for Windows partition. If so than I can recommend NT File Recovery available at http://www.new-utilities.net/ntfilerecovery.html. If your partition is not NTFS formatted or is diluted, than SpinRite from GRC is the best way to fix unpromising partitions and sometimes unpromising drives. You can get it here http://www.grc.com/sr/spinrite.htm.
NT File Recovery is a free tool. SpinRite, instead, will cost you $89 but is well worth the price if you own essential data on the fence that has not be backed up.
