Hello all
I have a drive that someone gave me to recover some MP3s on. This drive has been formated. I know this can be done just not sure witch program to use. I seen on an other post that Ultimate boot CD , Nice tools - Love it , but im not sure it has a full data recovery package. I love the idea of booting from CD and not needing your OS.

Also anything out there thats freeware : )

The only free data recovery packages that I know of are PC Inspector and Recuva. If the drive has been formatted, I think you may need something more powerful than those.

Try those 2 first. Then you would try the demos of GetDataBack and Ontrack Easy Recovery. The demos will tell you what it can do, you have to buy it to do the recovery.

You can also try recovermydata

I always use this one. i was able to recover a drive that was formatted and had a virus over a year ago
