I fixed them! I had tried a full format on both drives before, but this time I found the right keywords to find the answer on the Internet. All I had to do was change the policy on both drives from quick removal to better performance. When I did, the first time I formatted it failed, but I did it ...

Hello, I was having some errors with two thumb drives, and decided to run chkdsk. For the past few months, when trying to chkdsk them they would first report that the drives were raw, and abort. Then I would repeat the command and they would report they were NTFS (which is correct) and continue the ...

Update: There has barely been any change in the number of files, but now the estimated time to completion is 65 hours. This, after running just TestDisk for almost 9 hours.

I am currently waiting for Photo Rec to finish copying the files from my 2 TB (ext4) backup drive to my new 2 TB drive. This does not look like it will end well as the original names and folder structure is gone. At least there are file extensions, but it has been running for almost 2 hours 30 ...

Thank you. I am working against time it seems. My backup drive just stopped mounting all of a sudden. I cannot go for the whole partition as this is the largest drive I have (2 TB).

I am trying to fix a 2 TB external drive (connected to a different computer) that GParted reported has overlapping partitions that it could not fix. This drive is formatted for ext4 with an MS-DOS MBR. This drive, Limbo, has only one non-bootable partition. At least, it isn’t supposed to be bootable ...
