Data Recovery Index

I am looking for a data recovery software for memory cards? Does anyone know any free software? I have searched softpedia, majorgeeks, zdnet and cnet. All of them are serving only demo version. And demo version can’t save the files.

Best reply by Future:

My God, you also suffered data lose. I suffered data lose the day before yesterday.
If these files are really important for you , I suggest you try professional recovery software even though it charges for money. I think your valuable files are more important than just few dollars.
The day before yesterday I searched for file recovery software, and finally I found a professional one. With this software,I got back all my deleted(Shift+Del) files with nice quality.
To be surprise, it can also recover photos,and partition.
I used it, you can specify a target folder, which means you don’t need to scan all the data on the disk. first try the trail version. you can check if the files you need are recoverable form Preview Window to evaluate the quality before you buy.
Most important now it is on sale,maybe this news is exciting for you.

You can download from

Is it better to use data recovery softwares or should directly consult data recovery companies?

I have movies and music that I have downloaded on my external hard drive. It’s stopped working and now I need to have a data recovery service performed on it. Will they report me? Will they know? Can they see files that have been on my PC first (i.e. as I am downloading movies and music to my PC’s hard drive first, then transfering to the xternal drive)?

Best reply by HDD_4242:

Yes, they can see files that are currently stored on your machine and can see files that may have been deleted. If the company’s legit, they shouldn’t be going through your files though seeing what you have on , so they won’t see or report you.

If you take your disk to a small, local repair shop, they may get curious and look around your disk, but they still probably won’t report you.

I have a Seagate 500 GB/7200rpm something or other hard drive that suffered trauma when the Macbook it was in hit the ground. The drive is like 2 years old. I sent it to Data Recovery Labs and they quoted $1690 to recover the data. Surely there must be an alternative that *normal* people can afford? Any tips?
What do you mean by “freezing it”?
But can this be done if the dead computer can’t even be booted?

Best reply by T-MAN:

Have you tried plugging it into an external harddrive case you can get from bestbuy for like $40-$50. Try freezing it for about 30min and reconnecting it to the computer, this option only gives you about 15-20 mins, so you need to get your data off ASAP. It also depends on how bad the drive was damaged. Last but no least try geek squad they might be able to get you data of around $99-$160.

I am using EASEUS data recovery wizard to try to recover my files on my external hard drive. It looked like this was working for a while but now it is stuck in one spot and the bar isn’t moving forward. It isn’t frozen as the timer keeps increasing. Should I wait and see what happens or start over?

Best reply by vulcan:

Stop EASEUS and run chkdsk /f on the problem drive. Then try EASEUS again.
