HP Elitebook x360 1040 G6, BIOS 01.27.00 is current. UEFI diags show both
memory and disk are OK.
After a crash, third partition is RAW.
Disk is an Intel HBRPEKNX0202AH. BIOS claims it's 512 GB.
Running analyze shows "can't read MFT" for both the second
(MS Reserved) and c: partitions and "This partition ends after the disk limits"
as well as:
The hard disk (512 GB / 476 GiB) seems too small! (< 1024 GB / 953 GiB)
The following partitions can't be recovered:
MS Data 1000204287 1001609214 1404928
NTFS, blocksize=4096, 719 MB / 686 MiB
MS Data 1000212479 2000422910 1000210432
NTFS, blocksize=4096, 512 GB / 476 GiB
I also ran the deep search without any change.
As testdisk warns that the disk capacity must be correctly detected for a successful
recovery, I'm afraid I must ask for guidance. Thanks in advance for any pointers.
Cheers

Re: can't read MFT / hard disk seems too small
Thank you for taking the time to reply.
I thought there was a size issue due to these lines:
Disk \\.\PhysicalDrive0 - 512 GB / 476 GiB - CHS 62260 255 63
Check the hard disk size: HD jumper settings, BIOS detection...

To answer your other question, no, I can't access anything on partition 3. It tells me the file system is raw. However, it also tells
me that it's locked with bitlocker, so I'm trying to track down a recovery key and if that is successful, I'll see if manage-bde
is able to unlock it.
Cheers.

Re: can't read MFT / hard disk seems too small
Continuing ...
None of the recover keys found work. In retrospect, this doesn't seem surprising
as the partition is raw. I suspect nothing will work until/unless the bitlocker
partitions have a proper file system on them.
Indeed, mange-bde -status gives an 80070057 error.
Some people seemed to have fixed the problem with chkdsk, but however
that worked, here it fails to run claiming it does not work on raw file systems.
repair-bde seems to be the next thing to try.
Cheers.
