#DiskDrill
500GB drive where I keep a ton of old movies and music burned from CDs years ago finally died.

Now in a caddy and DiskDrill Pro is doing its usual magic. Yay.

It’ll take best part of a day to do the byte-by-byte backup and recovery to a new drive.

But, good ol’ DiskDrill.

Mooi. Ik heb diskdrill gedownload en geïnstalleerd. En een levenslange update service erbij. Kost wel wat, maar nu krijg ik zo te zien een flinke hoeveelheid foto's terug!
Blij ei hier. Die €112 waren het waard.
Als het iemand anders overkomt: kom even langs met je kaartje, dan help ik je.
Als je een geheugenkaart van een fototoestel op de camera geformatteerd hebt, is er dan nog een manier om foto's van een mooie vakantie in Noorwegen terug te halen? Ik vraag dat voor een stommeling.

Yes, at this point a 3rd party software may be needed to help you recover it. The files should still be accessible on the hard drive.

DiskDrill is a good option to try.

DiskDrill & Backblaze are your friends

surtout ne créez aucun nouveau fichier nulle part; si vous avez accès à un service informatique au travail ils peuvent sans doute faire quelque chose si rien n'a été écrit par dessus. J'avais pu récupérer l'essentiel des fichiers d'un disque mort avec DiskDrill sur OSX.

do you think diskdrill would work for that specific folder? www.cleverfiles.com

Ich habe auf dem Flohmarkt eine Festplatte erstanden. Auf den ersten Blick leer. Auf den zweiten (Diskdrill) ein vollständiges Backup eines Rechners. Incl persönl Daten. Sollte ich den ehemaligen Besitzenden kontaktieren?

if windows isn't recognizing the partition, then diskdrill wouldn't find it. your last ditch effort would be to try a linux distribution to see if it can recognize the drive.

The longer I let this run, the more disheartening it gets.

Thank you so much, but the files have been deleted in the trash bins as well. Both on my computer and on onedrive. I think the only thing I can do now is to recover from the drive itself. I tried using diskdrill, but I don't have enough cash to recover the files :(

I had one of the biggest scares of my life last night. My bank of over 500 GB worth of sound effects, music samples, and other plugins, was fried from a thunderstorm from the night before.

Luckily, it seems like I've managed to recover the data with #DiskDrill 💀 Always have backups!

That’s lean compared to these MSoffice apps.
I recently used DiskDrill to see where all the fat was and it’s an entertaining view of one’s drive for sure.

For situations like this, or something slightly dumber, I use DiskDrill.

it was a program within windows called DiskDrill

¿La tarjeta ya había sido usada antes? Si es una comprada en Amazon/Aliexpress (para estas cosas son lo mismo) las probabilidades de que la capacidad que dice no sea real son muy altas.
Si es una que ya habías usado, prueba a copiar los ficheros con el programa Teracopy o DiskDrill.

Para o povo de T.i
O diskdrill ainda é um bom programa ou tem algum melhor para recuperar arquivos de um SD.?
Tô desconfiado que apagaram imagens da câmera de segurança, removendo o sd,e quero ter certeza disso.

Does anyone know a #DataRecovery program that maintains the file structure after recovery? Im using #DiskDrill & it recovers the raw files only. I need the folder structure in tact.
