Testdisk sees partition but doesn't write it
Posted: 06 Dec 2015, 14:20
Hi.
I'm trying to move a Samsung 2TB disk from external iOmega USB3 enclosure to internal SATA2 port. I already realized that each port is unable to see the others partition. Apparently one uses 512k cluster, while the other uses 4096.
Thing is, Testdisk catchs missing partition almost instantly when I select disk -nothing while using drive-, and list files and folder trees correctly, but fails to make it visible to OS after write and rebooting PC. I use it with admin priviledges from windows 10 64bits. It was able to recover old partitions overwrote on SATA once back to USB3 enclosure, but not the other way around, the one I'm interested into since I have 1,8tb of data.
I tried DOS version but it doesn't react to KB keys after listing HDDs, and Hiren's boot version runs the same as Windows 10, listing files but not writing back partition.
Any help would be appreciated.
