Deleted partition on 1Tb disk with DD on linux

#1 Post by alakentu »

Hello everyone.

I have a 1Tb disk from which I mistakenly deleted the partition from Linux using the DD command, I was trying to create a bootable USB and I didn't realize that the path I had used was /dev/sdb instead of /dev/sdc. Now when I run the TestDisk it shows me many entries that say that it is a Linux partition with the name that I had given it "shared" (in Spanish), I need to recover that partition and all the data and I have tried to see the data inside the partition that shows me upon completion and says that the data was corrupted. What can or should I do? I hope you can help me, it is important to recover all that data.

Thanks in advance.

What is "tesdisk", please?

You can use PhotoRec or any commercial solution to try to recover some data.

What dd has overwritten cannot be recovered - it is gone.
