Hard Disk disaster data recovery
31 year ago
Some months ago I published a guide to recover lost data on an unaccessible partition Easy HD data recovery with TestDisk. This week end I got an other issue on an other PC, home partition (ext3) was no longer readable (on boot I got ata1.00 DRDY ERR UNC what it’s this? 
).
I tried testdisk but nothing seemed to be recoverable, home partition was really unreadable also for teskdisk… Oh my God what I have to do… Do I lose my data? Noooooo I cannot!
Search on the net I found an other procedure, a little bit laborious, but really powerful.
Easy HD data recovery with TestDisk

in General
Some days ago my notebook partition table was corrupted, something strange happened.
Nothing seemed to be possible: GParted couldn’t see any partition, Linux recovery couldn’t access to disk and also ultimate boot CD tools couldn’t see nothing… Only a blank disk!
Due job urgency, I was obliged to reinstall rapidly Debian squeeze. I was sure that everything would be unrecoverable.
Today I tried to do the impossible: recover my old data after repartitioning and formatting.
After some analysis I choose TestDisk.
