Articles: Has anyone written drivers for a Datasafe, to allow a DOS PC to use it?

Wednesday, September 26, 2001 - 09:42 PM, (1163 Reads)

Hi,


I've got a problem with my work's laptop, I've managed to delete an NTFS Partition (BIG MISTAKE), but the data still exists and would be recoverable with a tool called EasyRecovery from OnTrack (I've only got the trial version, which has found the files, but refuses to recover them unless I buy the full version). Trouble is, I would need a second hard drive to recover to and as far as I can tell, the laptop can't take a second drive.


I do own an APDL Datasafe and in theory could use this, if DOS drivers exist.


Alternatively (and probably simpler), could anyone suggest a FREE tool for DOS which might "UNDELETE" my NTFS partition??? Then I wouldn't have to use tools to recover odd files.


Apologies for off topic (PC) questions, but I think I'm likely to get more useful responses from the RISC OS community.


Thanks in advance.

Maybe gpart could recover the partition. It's for linux though, so you'd need a linux boot disc.

Just so you know, the problem was solved by the loan of a 2nd hard-drive (media bay) for the laptop concerned - data was recovered - and the anxiety has now reduced!
