NTFS - Undeleted files from 1TB drive fill 4TB partition
Posted: 23 Aug 2016, 07:36
Hi! I've got a 1TB drive (WDC WD10EARS-00MVWB0) where I mistakenly deleted multiple folders, like "Users", "Windows", "Program Files". Now, having used testdisk and photorec before, I decided to use testdisk 7.1-wip to undelete the data to a new 4TB drive using ext4. I'm using the Undelete option, selecting all files using the key provided for it and choosing copy. The problem is that it fills my 4TB drive and it can't finish extracting because of that. I see a lot of files and folders in my 4TB drive, so it is not a single big file hoarding all the space.
Anybody has some pointers as to what could I do? I remember that the 1TB drive had Windows 7 Home Premium installed on it.
