recommend data recovery software
Posted: Tue Feb 19, 2019 2:27 am
So, this week I've had a major scare, nearly losing all the work I have ever done including like 1000 music recordings, all my buzz files, all my photos etc.
I kept all my data mirrored on 2 hard drives, but in the end it was human error that caused me to have a massive data loss.
All the files appear to be there after doing a deep scan taking about 8 hours per hard drive. I haven't recovered the data yet because I'm going to be doing a complete copy, including empty space of the two hard drives, so that I can recover again from those if anything goes wrong in the process.
I am moving to a new regime where I will be keeping all my data in 3 hard drives in 2 physical locations. 2 in the computer and 1 in a lock box.
Anyways, I tried recuva. It was not able to find all the files. I had best results with ontrack so far, but it's also the most expensive. I need software that will keep the file structure, as that's how I have organized everything, by what file it was in.
I wanted to see if anyone had any recommendations for good data recovery software. Recovery rate is the most important metric.
Thanks!
