Hi,

My 3TD has crashed and EFI boot partition is gone. Here is the result after running the testdisk program:

Disk 81 - 801 GB / 746 GiB - CHS 97451 255 63
Check the harddisk size: HD jumpers settings, BIOS detection...
The harddisk (801 GB / 746 GiB) seems too small! (< 3000 GB / 2794 GiB)
The following partitions can't be recovered:

simulate write!

TestDisk exited normally.


It took about 12 hours to run the testdisk program. My question is, is this a hardware issue? My drive is about 9 months old. Any help will be appreciated.

Thanks,

How many partitions do you had ? Which filesystem type ? ext4, HFSX, NTFS ? Size ?
