HDD messed up after using ontrack easyrecovery

#1 Post by shimik »

Hi guys,
please I need help recovering my files on my 2TB HDD. I've tried to recover files from
my friend's external 500GB HDD which was not mounting in windows, by kroll ontrack easyrecovery software - choosing Copy Disk and copying external HDD to my computer was very bad idea. Now even my HDD is in RAW and not accessible.
This is my log from Testdisk:
Quick search only found some weird FAT16 unrecoverable partition. This partition ends after the disk limits. (start=4100259221, size=1081306929, end=886598853, disk end=3907029168).
After deep search it found my NTFS partition, with these parameters:
0 32 33 243201 45 44 3907024896

Shouldn't it be 0 1 1 something?
There is also warning> The harddisk (2000 GB / 1863 GiB) seems too small! (< 2652 GB / 2470 GiB).
It seems like there has been added those 500Gb to my 2TB disk?
When I try to list the files, it says the file system is corrupted

Code: Select all
