GetDataBack Data Recovery 3.3

Publisher's description of GetDataBack Data Recovery

view larger

GetDataBack Data Recovery is a highly advanced data recovery software that will help you get your data back when your drive's partition table, boot record, or FAT/MFT or root directory is corrupt, a virus has hit the drive; when files are deleted; or when the drive is struck by a power failure. The software can even recover your data when the drive is no longer recognized by the operating system or when all directory information is lost. Advanced algorithms will make sure all directories and subdirectories are put together as they were, and that long filenames are reconstructed correctly. GetDataBack Data Recovery is safe because it's read-only, which means the program will never attempt to write to the drive you are about to recover.

Version 3.3 added support for Virtual Image files.

  GetDataBack Data Recovery

  This program rocks!

  by: andrewbaggins on 18-Jun-2008 05:38:48 PM

  Pros: After a power outage our second hard drive which we use for data storage was no longer recognized by Windows - no files, no folders, no pictures, no music, nothing. Since I was out of town, my wife decided to re-format the drive to see if it could still be used. Then she copied some of our photos off of a CD onto the drive to prove it would work and left the rest up to me when I got home. Having little hope, I started GetDataBack and went to bed while it began scanning our 160GB drive. Next morning it showed a huge list of recoverable files. I told it to recover them (to our main Windows C: drive in My Documents). Later we went through the recovered files. As far as we could tell everything was there except for two photos - yes, just two! - and one garbled music track. In additon, it recovered some photos and documents we had deleted over six months before. We were suitably impressed .....

  Cons: It may take hours and hours to scan a large drive.

  GetDataBack Data Recovery

  Not good for recover .doc , xls , jpg files from cluster.

  by: hengei on 10-Nov-2007 02:31:44 AM

  Cons: I have rescued a lot of .doc , .xls , .jpg and other files that have been stores automaticly as Cluster files. I assumed I could get my files back to the original but the program did not help me out with that .

  Could it be that I have used the wrong program ?
