Help needed to recover my files
Posted: 24 Mar 2013, 05:09
Hi everyone,
I need some help recovering some files I have on my external iomega hard drive. It was working fine for many months but then I started experiencing problems with it where it would not be recognised by computer and the file format changed to RAW from NFTS. I have since learned that the problem probably occured because i simply unplugged my external hard drive from the USB port without safely removing it first.
Anyway I need to recover my files on this external hard drive and would be grateful for any assistance as I am a complete newbie with this technical stuff.
What I would like is step by step instructions so that I can find my files on this corrupted external hard drive so that I can copy it onto a new external hard drive.
How would I go about this? Whats the simplest method? Step by step instructions would be useful.
Just a quick point when I have done a quick scan and deeper scan of this external hard drive it did not find any partitions.
Many thanks in advance.
