I am running Windows Vista, and the drive is a 3Tb Intenso drive and is assigned the letter "I".
1. The very first thing I did was the chkdsk and this is what I got:
2. Then I opened TestDisk, chose the PhysicalDrive, and selected Proceed:
3. I chose Intel:
4. Then Analyse:
5. This is what I got so I started a Quick Search:
6. And I got this after it was done. I continued:
7. Then I pressed Enter:
8. No partition was found so I started a Deeper Search:
9. This is what I got. I continued:
10. I got this and pressed Enter:
11. I quit to the main menu:
12. Chose Advanced:
13. Then I chose Boot:
14. I got this and chose Rebuild BS:
15. And I finally saw some folders and files present on the disk. So I pressed Y:
16. I then chose List:
17. Then with the right arrow key I entered the first visible folder (XXX TO FIX):
18. But nothing in that folder was found. (I tried the other folders and the same happened):
When I got back to step 14 and Rebuilt the BS again, and then on step 15 I chose "N", it would show me a list of other files and folders that weren't present on the previous list. And none of the folders had anything found in them again.
So I'm stuck here
. How do I recover my data? Is it possible that a power failure made me lose all my data?Many thanks in advance.
