I'm looking for a program that can "undelete" files from a 6 TB JBOD array consisting of 2 3TB disks. I've been trying to do it with TestDisk, using the non partioned media option. When doing the quick scan to analyze it I can see the maps that have been deleted, but not the files that have been deleted, I can however see all the files in folders that have not been deleted. Also when going to the advanced options there is no undelete option for Ext4, only for Ext2 it seems.

If anyone knows how to help me with this problem I would be very thankfull.

Hi, thnx for your reply, I tried to get it to work, but it keeps saying that my commands are invalid, I'm trying to do the following:
I have an external hdd (its actually 2 drives in JBOD) which is either /dev/md1p1 or /dev/md/1
The deleted folder with files on that hdd are: /Volume_1/Jelle
and I want to copy them to my own hdd which is: /dev/sdc
and I dont realy care to which folder they are copied to on that hdd, maybe just the Documents folder.
Do u know the command I should type to make that happen? I thought:
/dev/md1p1/Volume_1/Jelle extundelete --restore-directory dev/sdc/Documents
but that isnt working. Can you, or anyone else help me?

oh now it even gives the fancy Error code 2133571347
