I had left my photos on the phone/camera after syncing so all the recent ones are still there. I haven't actually lost very much data, despite not backing up for 3 weeks. Then it got stuck and provided ever-increasing time estimated to completion - it was at 15 hours to go when i stopped it. The Data Rescue Quick check was the most successful so far, it got about 30% into the drive. It could work but I know there are professional shops in the US that do this kind of thing.
But it looked like all he would do is muck around with it in the same way I had. I found one guy willing to do it, he said it would take a week. I am going to give it to some shop in CM, would appreciate if somebody knows a professional data recovery shop. The HD contains 40 million sectors so at that speed that would take. I let it run for only about 8 minutes, in this time it had processed 4 sectors, and found all of them bad. I installed HD Restore and tried it but maybe my HD is too bad to do this. Live fast, die young seems to be its motto - this thing was only 4 months old. Things are somewhat complicated by the fact that the drive has 2 partitions, and the one I want to recover is the Mac partition, formatted with HFS+.īTW I am not recommending the Hitachi 7K200 drive anymore, obviously. 27 days! And that was only after a night in the deep freezer.ĭoes anyone know of a professional data recovery service in Chiang Mai or BKK? I have a backup but it's 3 weeks old (bad I know) and I want to recover a handful of documents from the drive. At the speed it was going, I estimated it to run about 660 hours, actually.
Bad sectors, bad blocks, whatever.ĭata Rescue ran for 20 minutes, then estimated there were about 400 hours remaining. But after the Apple center replaced the HD with the original I still had (free of charge - amazing sometimes!), I put the 200GB HD in an external enclosure and it turns out the HD is just bad. I had installed a 200GB HD in my MacBook Pro so I thought maybe some cable came loose. My laptop HD fried last week - it was so bad the computer would not detect the drive at all for the most part.
