    Disk structure is corrupt and unreadable


    Based on what I read on this thread: Disk structure is corrupt and unreadable I did everything as instructed by Jumanji..

    However, my case is similar to this one :
    Corrupted disk structure, tried repair, only found one partition.

    Tried GetDataBack by NTFS (not simple edition) and got the same result as the user named "neoplasm".

    Tried to run TestDisk and repair MFT. The result I got was "Can't read NTFS MFT.'
    Dont think I can run PhotoRec because I dont have any other HDD to store recovered files..

    Right now I am running Easeus that was suggested by Anshad Nervana. Hopefully this stuff will work. However I really do hope someone can help me up on this.

    P/s: Jumanji you you ever read this please help me

    Pertaining disk corruption unfortunately it isn't always guaranteed to recover any files. Even if you hire a data reconstruction company for big bucks they still might not be able to get anything. Personally I don't know much about it so that is all I can offer. It is a very specialized field. The best way not to lose your data is to back it up.

    If it's raw it's just lost partition you need specific partition recovery software there's lots of free ones using file recovery can damage it if one recovery doesn't work try another when partition is recovered files will be there

    1. Complete Details of your HDD required, Internal? External? Manufacturer? Model No:? Capacity?

    2. How many partitions did you have in that drive?

    3. Have you formatted it yourself anytime before? If the answer is yes , which tool did you use to format it?

    4. Post the following screenshots.

    a.) Windows Disk Management showing your problem drive.

    b.) Run Minitool Partition Wizard Free and show the first screen that appears as soon as you launch it.

    c.) Run Partiton Recovery Wizard in it and do a Full Scan. Post the screenshot of Partitiona Found Window that appears at the end of the Scan. But do not do anything.After taking the screenshot, Cancel and close Partition Wizard.

    tekokk It would also be helpful if you filled your (My System Specs) completely.

    This tutorial by Brink will be helpful.
