Re: WD 2TB external drive unrecoverable

yes I tried to list files but without result.
I launched partitionrecovery in windows environment and it found 10 partitions with all files and folders tree but it was impossible to recover them.
What can I do to at least see and copy the files?

Re: WD 2TB external drive unrecoverable

Already tried in windows with same results.
Do you think I have to change again the geometry?

Re: WD 2TB external drive unrecoverable

Hi Fiona, it seems strange to me too.
I changed geometry from 1 to 255 and from 16 to 63.
This was the status before I changed.
I launched 2 times deeper search with the same result.
I thought I could try with photorec, but I need another drive to copy such big files.
What do you suggest ti do ...

Re: WD 2TB external drive unrecoverable

Yes I selected intel, cause it's formatted ntfs.
When I continue it says it's too damaged.
Do you think it's possible to recover files using photorec?
I tried but stopped due to the very long process.
Thank you.

WD 2TB external drive unrecoverable

Hi all, I have a problem with external 2TB Western Digital drive.
I was coping one file when it stopped and doesn't mount either in windows and in mac os.
I analyzed unsuccessfully 2 times, this is the message.
I changed the geometry of heads and sectors.
What you suggest?
Thank you.
Christian.
