Without any semblance of hesitation, the answer is a BIG NO (72 points, all caps at that! ). If you are attempting data recovery on your own, the first thing you should know is NOT to disturb the problem hard disk. Get that very very clear in your head! Data recovery software should not be loaded on the problem disk. Instead, as mentioned above, load the data recovery software on the good hard disk of the computer to which you have attached your problem hard disk as a primary/secondary slave.
After attaching the problem hard disk, make an image of the disk, using a disk imaging utility and work only on the image thus created. This would leave the data on the hard disk intact and leaves you free to try out any number of data recovery software on the image of the problem hard disk. |
Good advice work on it
