Recover Hard Drive

[rhyder]

Hi. I have Easy Recovery Pro, but I do not like the way it recovers files on a hard drive with a missing allocation table.

What software can I use to recover a hard drive where I know the data is still there, but the allocation table is missing. I used to use Norton Disk Doctor and Sytem Utilities.

Thank you:
Rhyder

Rhyder, the best data recovery software that I've ever used in my many years of computing comes from a company called Stellar. Their Stellar Phoenix recovery programs have saved my bacon quite a few times. I highly recommend the programs. The program will get your data back even though the allocation table is missing.

Good luck to you. Cheers.

Hello,
Check this very useful article:
http://www.runtime.org/recoverability.htm
And do a search on download.com or majorgeeks.com to do a compare among many utilities out there.

How does Stellarinfo compare to Easy Recovery Pro?

Does Stellarinfo give you the files back the same way they are stored, or does it lump them together, where you have to go through a bunch of directories named dir.001, dir.002 etc where 001 may be all jpg's and 002 may be all doc's? That is what easy recovery pro does.

Thank you:
