Hi, I need a file from a WD caviar 80gb SATA hard drive. It doesn't show up in my computer. Its in disk management but you can't assign a drive letter. it says cyclic errors so i tried chkdsk but the partition that has all the stuff on is not there. Its a 80gb capacity but it says on diskpart that there are no partitions and the capacity of the drive is only 5.7gb the other 70gb has dissapeared. Tried a few recovery programs but they can't see the lost partition either and think its only a 5.7gb drive. I think the original problem occured when the computer was unexpectedly cut off from the power. Any suggestions to recover my llost file?
Many thanks, Laurie
