Hey guys,
I have an issue with a laptop i'm trying to fix. I get the S.M.A.R.T error when trying to boot because the hdd appears to be faulty. I press f1 and it won't boot. So apperently the hdd is dead/about to die.
I want to plug the hdd on my computer to see if i can retrieve some of the data. However, I have never tried to retrieve data from a hdd which has windows on it. How does it work? Are there specific programs to deal with that or will i simply see the disk on my computer and be able to dive in it (if is still works).
I know there are a lot of post about faulty hdd but i couldn't find one explaining how to retrieve data from a windows partition using another computer.
thank you guys in advance
