Hi all. Just wondering if it's possible to recover data from an IDE hard drive that has been fdisked and changed from Fat32 to NTFS. (yeah. it was me ) I've heard that there's software for this kind of thing, but I know nothing about it. Any help would be great. :good:
you can probley recover some data of not all there is certain companies you can send it to to have this done but last time i checked it was pricey! ive never seen any free software in order to do it and the software ive have seen been expensive. it depends if you wnt to spend alot?
Nothing I can think of would work. If this is critical data, you'll have to checkout a data recovery service...and those things aren't cheap ($1k+ is pretty common from what I hear). I don't even know what software they use, but I imagine it's not chump change either, so even if you wanted to get the software itself, I couldn't tell you what to look for.
Its easier if you used a logical partition, but I dont know about this fat32-ntfs thing. It might have spannered it for you. The only data recovery software ive tried is one by Stellar Phoenix. Hard Drive Data Recovery Software Tools, Disk Recovery Utilities -Stellar It didnt help my problem but I ran it on a spare drive and it pulled stuff up so it defiantly worked.
