flambot Posted June 27, 2010 Share Posted June 27, 2010 I use a Hard Drive Dock with several HDD's. One is suddenly inaccessible. A box pops up saying "The directory or file is inaccessible or corrupted". I have used the Sea Tools software and carried out a test that reveals the HDD is still healthy. XP's "Computer Management" area also says the same thing. What do I do now? Can I recover the info on the HDD? Or, can I see what is on the drive to see if it's worth recovering. I know many of the files also reside on my unRAID server so I can restore them - but am not sure what else I may have put on the drive. Is must be something that states what's in the root of the drive. This must be corrupted. Currently I am performing a longer test and so far no bad sectors have been found. Not sure where to go from here? Thx Link to comment
flambot Posted June 27, 2010 Author Share Posted June 27, 2010 I managed to recover the files I wanted by using "Recuva" - by the makers of CCleaner. Seems to be a great piece of free software. Link to comment
