File Recovery On A Corrupted Partition?


Posted by benny

Had a Maxtor One-Touch II external hard drive but now both Windows and Linux can not read any data on the drive and ask for it to be formatted.
As this was a backup hard drive I really don’t want to reformat although a low level format and data recovery I know is possible.
My main question, does anyone know of any freeware or linux software that can recover these files?
PS. I have tried taking the drive out of the USB casing and as it is only a normal Max10 ATA drive was able to plug it in as slave to check if the casings circuit board was damaged.
PPS. The device manager in all OS’s recognises the drive correctly but simply sees it as unformatted.
Any ideas anyone

How Is Software Actually Designed And Built?


Posted by benny

I am curious as to how software is actually designed and built in the real world, as in the domain of software engineering. I can understand the programming languages themselves, it just seems that I cannot understand how they can be made into a software system for use in an embedded device or on a PC. Is there any automation to the software design process? What tools are actually used to develop software?
I’ve also heard that code for a lot of different tasks is placed in libraries, and this code can be referenced when the code you are coding is being built and incorporated in the final product. How do you find which libraries and code that you need?
I also wanted to ask if the graphical user interface code is kept separate from the actual program code, and the GUI is an “interface” to the program. Can GUI libraries be used?

Recover Deleted Partition?


Posted by benny

Can I recover data from a deleted partition?
For example:
My 500GB had two partitions:
C: 250GB
D: 250GB
Now my 500GB has two “new partitions”:
C: 200GB
D: 300GB
Can I recover data from the old partitions that were different sized to my current ones?
I tried using several recovery software, but it only detects deleted data from my current partitions, it doesn’t detect any data at all from the old partitions.
