I recently (18/08/08) had a major hard drive situation. I accidentally moved the files to wrong hard drive partition, and erased 7 years of photos and datas. All priceless family photos, data, oil and gas doucments etc. All gone. I was sunk. I know there maybe proffesional IT would recover all my data with some money.

So sad my friends.. so sad. I was heartbroken.. la la la. I spent a very restless that night thinking about all the data I lost into thin air! Tried CHKDSK but not worked.

So I looked for software. There are a lot of ‘files recover’ software available. A Google search on files recover software returns a long list of software, err I looked for ‘cracked’ one lah.. I tried several different programs, and none of them retrieved all my data, and none of them can recover my file structure. I thought it would never be possible to recover me data.

Finally I found one program, EASEUS Data Recovery Wizard Pro v4.3.6, the cracked one.. thanks hackers!!

So I downloaded this software and it did reconize the hard drive. After doing a deep scan on the drive it identified the files it could recover. After about 5 hours of processing, this software recovered about 99% of the data. I promply copied the data off to a fresh drive. I figure recovering 99% of something is better than 100% of nothing.

So.. back up your datas.. even if you have 99% of your materials backed up there is always something you forgot to back up.
