photorec on wested digital my book live 2tb

#1 Post by makdaddy »

Hey Guys

Successfulyl rebuilt partition with testdisk. It was an ext2 partition

Using Photorec to copy the files to my Mac's internal hard drive for recovery.

Est Time to completion is over 60000 hours.

Will this eventually sort its self out or am I better to use spinrite from grc to get the drive into a more happy place?

Thanks
