Thanks again for your reply. In the time since I've posted, the analysis has finished. Much faster that I would have thought.
So, this is the result:
Code: Select all
Disk /dev/rdisk3 - 5000 GB / 4657 GiB - 9767475200 sectors
Partition Start End Size in sectors
>P EFI System 40 409639 409600 [EFI System Partition] [EFI]

Structure: Ok. Use Up/Down Arrow keys to select partition.
Use Left/Right Arrow keys to CHANGE partition characteristics:
P=Primary D=Deleted
Keys A: add partition, L: load backup, T: change type, P: list files,
Enter: to continue
FAT32, blocksize=512, 209 MB / 200 MiB
All partitions listed are shown in green.
Since the last bottom in that window has different information depending on which partition is highlighted, here are the various other bottom lines:
Code: Select all
HFS+ blocksize=4096, 10 MB / 10 MiB
HFS blocksize=33554432, 706 GB / 657 GiB
HFS+ blocksize=4096, 10 MB / 10 MiB
HFS blocksize=16777216, 38 GB / 36 GiB
HFS blocksize=16777216, 103 GB / 96 GiB
HFS blocksize=65536, 4295 MB / 4096 MiB
HFS+ blocksize=4096 + Backup, 193 GB / 180 GiB
HFS+ blocksize=4096 + Backup, 198 GB / 185 GiB
HFS+ blocksize=4096, 198 GB / 185 GiB
HFS+ blocksize=8192, 2500 GB / 2328 GiB
I should note that for every partition, it states "Structure: Ok."
Only the EFI partition has the option to list files (because it's FAT32?), all of the others say, "Support for this filesystem hasn't been implemented."
I don't really know how to interpret these results. I've read the documentation (TestDisk.pdf) but most it deals with Windows and Linux.
What do these results mean? What is my next move? Will the "load backup" option be of any use? Any help on this matter is greatly appreciated.
Thanks again for your time and efforts in this matter.
