I have leftover pizza from yesterday
with garlic mayo dip for the crusts.

Today I have presented our software to some more users who didn't get to see the demo last time. There were plenty of questions, most of which boiled down to "because the User Requirements said to do that." Fortunately there were a couple of the User Requirement Writers in the demo who could elaborate. Generally well received apart from one who had a nitpick about a field being changed on import. Turns out she's been banging on about it since the beginning of the project and nobody else has a problem so lalalala don't care.

I've achieved a level of fail almost unheard of for an IT guy.
I rebuilt my home computer a little while ago. Backed all my files up onto a spare drive I had knocking around. Kept meaning to transfer the files across. All my photos, all my mp3s, all my doccos, it was all there.

A little while after that my Sky box hard drive packed up, so I repaired it with a spare one I had kicking about. I think you can see where this is going by now.

Today I discovered that the drive I repaired my Sky box with is the one with my life on it. It has now been reformatted to Sky's file system and I don't know of any recovery software that can pull it back.

I don't even know where my old CD backups from the previous rebuild have gone. At least then I'd have something back. All gone.

I speak as one who had to reconstruct partition tables on an ext2 drive way back.
Reading kernel source (on another, still-working box) to figure out where master block copies were likely held was a little taxing ...

The real problem here is that recovery software is built for particular file systems.
Most will work on your standard Windows architecture, some will work for Linux, but I haven't found a single one that can read Sky's file system.

FAT32 is still readable by Windows, I think.

Yes FAT32 is still readable by Windows
It's still the most 'accessible' file system.
(, Tue 7 Jun 2011, 13:46, Reply)
Goodo.
Then what's to stop him using a smaller drive as a boot drive, and then rigging up the main one as a slave, and running recovery software on it?

From what I remember, stuff marked for deletion under Windows isn't actually deleted, it just lops a letter off the end of the file name.
(, Tue 7 Jun 2011, 13:49, Reply)
The problem is he's likely overwritten the MFT of the NTFS partition
Which keeps a 'list' of where parts of each file are stored. If that's not recoverable, the data is lost in unallocated clusters.
(, Tue 7 Jun 2011, 13:51, Reply)
Ah, that could be problematic.

(, Tue 7 Jun 2011, 14:00, Reply)
Not sure on near-forensic techniques/software
As I use professional stuff. Your best bet is with recovering the NTFS partition system as a whole, as digging in the unallocated clusters won't get as much back. Maybe Partition Magic might work?

Quick question - Does anyone have a method for moistening up a curry that has already been cooked and chilled? It was very nice, but a little dry.
