Windows may have some problems in dealing with bad sectors on a damaged hard disk, so the

best solution is to use a Linux OS to copy data to another hard disk. You can also use TestDisk to help analyze the sectors copied from a hard drive with physical problems onto a good drive.

best method: Antonio Diaz's GNU 'ddrescue' 4 Early detection of bad sectors Booting from Knoppix, a Linux LiveCD If you don't have a Linux OS installed, download the Knoppix LiveCD , a free bootable CD with a fully functional Linux OS that runs only in memory! Burn the .iso file to CD Boot from the CD-ROM At the boot prompt, type knoppix lang=us for a US keyboard/language. You are automatically logged in as the user 'knoppix' on a GUI console. Launch a Konsole/terminal(Note: Knoppix has a separate 'Konsole as root' choice, but copy/paste functions are deactivated in it, so we always recommend using the method described below for gaining root privileges from the normal user Konsole.) Knoppix comes with TestDisk, PhotoRec, dd and dd_rescue. To access hard disks, you need to run these utilities with root (Administrator) privileges. To become root from the Knoppix user account, select the Konsole and type sudo -s, then press the Enter key. Now you can use all of the powerful root commands you need for full disk access from this console. Note for users of Knoppix version 4.0.2 CD: To use TestDisk under Knoppix 4.0.2, you need to resolve a library problem by first executing: ln -s /usr/lib/libntfs.so.7 /usr/lib/libntfs.so.5 before running testdisk. Note for users of Knoppix version 5.1 CD: To use TestDisk under Knoppix 5.1, you need to resolve a library problem by first executing: ln -s /usr/lib/libntfs.so.10.0.0 /usr/lib/libntfs.so.9 before running testdisk.

TestDisk can rewrite the partition table as searching the partitions trace remain in the hard drive. It seems little bit difficult, testdisk backup mbr but operating TestDisk itself is easy. Comparing with using sector editor, it is low-risk. TestDisk

rewrites MBR. I mean it is possible to restore by TestDisk even the PC which have not boot in MBR trouble. Conversely, testdisk analyse read error at be aware of Windows may not boot if TestDisk is operated in a wrong way. And TestDisk is not software for recover the data. It is software for rewrite the data correctly. *It have been added "Undelete" http://www.cgsecurity.org/wiki/Damaged_Hard_Disk function from version6.10. and able to recover a part of the file. If you have necessary data in the hard drive, backup it to the highest priority. There are a wide range of circumstances of using TestDisk. It is impossible to cover all cases. It only means that, the most happen potential case are written here. In particular, here is about the case of the Windows cannot recognize the partitions due to failure in the http://selfsolve.net/software/testdisk.html partition table. This case includes in accidental deletion of the partitions. Therefore TestDisk is not only following this process. You have to think and act with checking on the issue at hand. This page should be hints for the solution. Starting TestDisk You get TestDisk from below. Top page CGSecurity Download page TestDisk Download DOS version, Windows version, Linux version - there are various versions for various OSs, so choose fit one for your OS. However, that means the partition table have some troubles, Windows might not boot itself. On this case, need to start DOS or Linux or appropriate OS from CD or floppy disk, then start TestDisk which is DOS version or Linux version. But instead of these processes, it is easy to use Ultimate Boot CD since these processes are so troublesome. Following, I will explain based on TestDisk for Windows. After started TestDisk, you can use these processes for other platforms. The downloaded file of TestDisk is compressed by ZIP, so use any unzip software and unzip it. Then the file will be extracted in folder named "testdisk-xxx" (xxx are version numbers). For example, the case of Windows version, an executable file of TestDisk named "testdisk_win.exe" should exist there. Hard drive of the PC for test was set following conditions. "D drive" was just created the pa

External WD HD shows as RAW - Ran Testdisk but still unable to view in Windows Started by skyvvalker , Mar 24 2013 10:45 AM Please log in to reply 7 replies to this topic #1 skyvvalker skyvvalker Members 21 posts OFFLINE Local time:08:07 AM Posted 24 March 2013 - 10:45 AM Ok, so I connected my 1.5Gb external HD to my new Dell laptop (Win 8) to copyfiles to the laptop. I started the copy process before bed (external drive working properly, files were visible), and when I woke up the next morning I was not able to see any files. Did some research and determined the HD was set to RAW somehow. Anyway, I found this link: http://html
