TestDisk 6.13, Data Recovery Utility, November 2011

Disk /dev/sdb - 2000 GB / 1863 GiB - CHS 243201 255 63
Analyse cylinder 243197/243200: 99%
MS Data 2048 3906963455 3906961408
--------------------------------------
The disk appears but with a RAW partition in the Windows (Vista) Disk Administrator. It was an NTFS partition. In the Acronis Disk Director (trial version) it appears as NTFS. File Scavenger lists the files, so I could recover them, but they are recent duplicates from another troubled external drive. Please advise.
