Hello Ralf,

I'm assuming that the unallocated Disk 1 is the one that you deleted your files on by mistake.

If so, then pick up at step 7 in OPTION FOUR of the tutorial below to restore the disk and hopefully all previous files on it as well. Just do not format or delete the disk again. If you do, you may not be able to recover the files.

Convert a Dynamic Disk to a Basic Disk

Hope this helps,
Shawn

Hey Brink thanks for the reply uhm,
I already did this, will this ruin my system?

Brink · 19 Feb 2012

Since you Windows 7 installation is on Disk 0 instead of the deleted Disk 1, then no it will not ruin your system. As long as you do not delere or format Disk 1 again, you may be able to recover you files on it. If what you are trying not doesn't work in recovering Disk 1, then try with the program I posted in the tutorial above.

Hello Brink, I manage to recover "some" files,
here's the image:

actually, the 93.74GB and 384.94GB unallocated space were on the RockyX3
disk, and only half of the files of RockyX3 disk were recovered, can i still recover some things here?

Thanks.

Edit:

Also how will i include this on my system?
I still can't see it on my disks
here's the photo on my disk management:

Right click the partition and assign it a drive letter.

Ralf,

Hopefully after you assign a drive letter, you may be able to recover more. However, I wouldn't expect to be able to get to much more than what you already have if any.

I don't like to take the risk, my files might get deleted. Thanks for the help though.

Ralf,

It says that Disk1 has 931.51 GB capacity and 931.51 GB free. There's nothing left on it.

As Stenzin posted above, go ahead and add a driver letter for Disk 1 to see if you may be able to access it afterwards, and hopefully recover anything on it with a free program like Recuva. I would recommend to add whatever letter it originally had if able.

What about the Minitool Partition Wizard? it manage to recover some things, I can even view my files on it. Can't I recover it from there? Thanks, Brink.

EDIT:
Guys I manage to Bring back my other Drive! Thanks, Though the other one is asking me to Format my other drive which I can't since all my files is in there, as you can see on the Minitool Partition Wizard it's the file of RockyX3 Drive. Help guys?
