Post subject: | Hard Drive Recovery |
I have an EX490 running WHS v1 and one of my drives went bad. I put everything aside for a few years and I didn't use the EX490. I was doing some cleaning up and I found this drive and not realizing it I inadvertently formatted the drive. Right now, I am able to see a DE folder but no subfolders worth of data. There is data on this drive. I understand I should have not formatted the drive and left it alone. If I put the drive back into the server and not add it to the drive pool do I have any chance to recover the data off this drive? I would like the data to be intact, if possible. I would like to copy the data off of this drive. |

when viewing a drive connected to a pc. You need to enable view hidden files and folders in windows explorer. If you can see the de folder then possibly you really did not format it. |

I can see this folder structure. DE folder ---Shares ---- Folder with weird numbers and letters -----Folder with other weird numbers and letters ---Folder ----James -----Desktop.ini That is all I see on this drive. Again, I know there is data on this drive which I may have to use a recovery software to retrieve the data. |

If you had other drives in the server and data duplication was enabled, you might find what your looking for on the secondary drives... |
