Free External Drive Data Recovery
Hard Drive Recovery Programmes?
I recently purchased a 1tb external HDD to back up all my media etc..having backed up everything i was a very happy man ….
until today , i plugged my HDD in and its coming up saying it needs to reformat , which i have not done yet for obvious reasons..
i have about 700gb full with 300 spare , but under disk management its sayin its 998gb free of 1000
so where did all the stuff go ?? the HDD was not knocked over or damaged
the stuff i have a i cant even begin to imagine living without and am unsure if any of these data recovery programmes work …
any help or advice would be much appreciated …
thanks in advance and merry christmas to all
Partition may just have been messed up. Try recovering partition;

If that does not work, recover the files with Testdisk;

This worked great for me twice now.
