NTFS Recovery
Posted: 19 Feb 2015, 16:59
Hey,
i've got a ext. hdd from a friend and try to ecover it. I was able to get a backup image with ddrescue and could extract files through PhotoRec but nevertheless i would like to recover the drive completely.
Gparted shows me a one partition and unallocated space at the end (~2,9MB). Gparted also gives me that warning:
Testdisk Quicksearch shows me one partition, when I do a deeper search it shows me following:
It seems that the partition starts at the end of the cycles? How do i fix that?
Thanks

NTFS is inconsistent. Run chkdsk /f on Windows then reboot it TWICE!
The usage of the /f parameter is very IMPORTANT! No modification was
made to NTFS by this software.Testdisk Quicksearch shows me one partition, when I do a deeper search it shows me following:
Code: Select all
Disk /dev/sdb - 120GB / 111GiB - CHS 14953 255 63
The harddisk (120 GB / 111 GiB) seems too small! (< 240 GB / 223 GiB)
