Hi guys,
I have an interesting (for me really sad
) issue for you to resolve. I changed my PC but I have kept my SSD (Crucial m4 120GB). The new laptop (actually is from 2007, just temporary) had win XP pre-installed, but only on 5400rpm HDD so I changed it for my SSD. While trying to install WinXP I accidently formated (not quick format, it took 6 hrs) my external WD MyBook 2TB connected via USB. It happend because installer could not see the SSD and I have not noticed the wrong size... The installer probably copied its instalation files on it but it never installed the OS. As you might have figured out, I want to unformat, but that is not where the problem is. Whole MyBook was encrypted via TrueCrypt with Serpent-AES with 26 character password (numbers, lower/upper-case letters, special signs). I remember the password.
Additional infomration is, that I do not want whole data. I want just the photos (up to 30GB) and my audiobook collection (up to 120GB). Other data was some music, documents, whatever unimportant stuff... Now I use the laptop with the SSD and Win8 32-bit. I disconnected MyBook right after the PC shuted down and havent connect it since.
The question is - How to?
P.S.: I would be really unhappy loosing this data, so I decided to give symbolic 20€ as Thank-You-Reward on PayPal for an advice, which will solve it. If the winner refuses to take it, it will be donated to local charity.
