Hello,
I have been using your software testdisk and it has been great to recover unwanted deleted partitions.
I am trying to get used to photorec now since I believe it has to be a great software.
I had the chance today with the Drobo's from a customer.
He accidentally use the Drobo as a backup destination instead of his USB drive.
Partition must have been formatted and some files were also copied on it.
Using photorec I am getting huge plist files which were obviously not present before since he used to store only mp3/wav files on it.
What am I doing wrong?
What does that mean please?
Thank you
A bunch of plist files

Re: A bunch of plist files
plist files are due to the disk been used on a Mac OS X computer (at least once).
As the partition has been reformated, the cluster size may be wrong, when using PhotoRec, enable the expert mode in Options, start a recovery, use a blocksize of 512 bytes, use the default options otherwise.
Good luck
