The gold standard is forensic software like EnCase, FTK, or--if you're broke--ProDiscover. It'll take some work, but if the bits are still on the drive, they'll get them. Each suite has varying levels of expertise at reconstructing folders and files.
- revorad 17y agoThanks, I didn't know about those.
- ErrantX 17y agolicenses for them are insanely expensive :) but worth it. Encase is the best bet - it will recover all of the files into something resembling a directory structure. Best to go to a pro firm: £100-200 is a fair price to dump all your files to another drive.
- revorad 17y agoYeah those license prices are way beyond my reach. Hiring a pro firm seems a much better option. But I might tinker around a bit before shelling out couple hundred bucks. Thanks for the tip anyway.
- ErrantX 17y agowhere are you located and what stuff needs recovering? It's a million to one your near us but I might know a company in your area that's decent.
- revorad 17y agoI'm in London. I mainly need to recover some files (all sorts - mdb,xls,txt etc) on my Windows XP partition. Thanks a lot for your help, really appreciate it. edit: just saw your uk email id in your profile.
