ESD USB on External Hard Drive
Posted: 13 Jun 2020, 20:42
Hello,
I used my 1TB external drive to install a windows 10 image on it.
Very stupid idea because i had only one partition which is lost now.
I think the initial partition was NTFS, I did not change anything after I bought it.
I deleted the 32 GB windows partition the mircrosoft media creation tool created afterwards.
I also tried Photorec and I think it could restore almost everything but I still have the hope that there is a way to restore the whole structure.
I started quick search and deep search afterwards, which took around 60 hours. I chose the partion table EFI GPT because it was suggested.
I don't post the log file in this text becaus it's way too long. The log file was created after Quick Search. I don't know why there was no file after deep search.
What else can I do?
What does "The harddisk (1000 GB / 931 GiB) seems too small! (< 2000 GB / 1863 GiB)" mean?
Thanks for your help!
