The error drive splits into D drive and H drive. They are empty seen from Explorer.
I tried running testdisk but it can only detect one drive(D). Then I tried photorec but to no avail. When I tried qphotorec, surprisingly it could detect the real harddisk.
On Windows7, qphotorec can detect the real harddisk but photorec cannot

Can you run "cmd" (right click run as administrator), "photorec_win.exe /debug /log /all" ?
Choose Quit and please post the photorec.log file content.

Although qphotorec could identify the correct disk size, it could not find any file from the drive.
