- HD data Recovery after mistaken partition removal?
- Posted by trs80 on April 26th, 2007
While recovering from a C drive crash we inadvertently removed the partion
from the D drive.
We have not done anything else to D, no format or anything. It still shows
as D in Windows Explorer but a message comes up that it needs to be
formatted.
Is there a way to restore the data that was on that drive in its original
context? Can I buy software to do that?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
thank you

Before doing anything, make a sector-wose image backup of the drive and
then work on the copy. Other than that for example the GNU parted (->google)
find partition command schould help. There are other tools as well.

Yes, any of the recovery tools should recover that fine.
I like Easy Recovery Pro, but it isnt cheap if you have to pay for it.

Would that be McAfee or Ontrack's?

Another great tool is testdisk: http://www.cgsecurity.org/wiki/TestDisk
It is included in many Linux Live CDs like grml (http://www.grml.org/).
