JEB101 Posted April 7, 2009 Share Posted April 7, 2009 I hope I'm posting in the correct section... I am running Kallyway DVD updated to 10.5.6 and running Vanilla Kernel 9.6 Specs are: Asus P5E mobo Intel Quad Core Extreme QX6850 @ 3.8GHZ 8GB OCZ Platinum Ram 1111MHZ BFG 8800 GT OC2 512MB Hard drives: 500GB OSX 300GB CCC 36GB Raptor Vista 3x 1.5TB (raid 5) Data I have Macfuse Installed with the newest NTFS 3g (hard drive cache enabled at the time) I was watching a movie from my data drive and playing a game on second monitor without issues for multiple hours, I left for a few hours, came back monitor was on standby since I am having issues coming back from Sleep. I try to continue a TV season I was watching and noticed that ALL folders starting with Season 1,2,4,or 6 are all 0KB and are not accessible. I have tried running a windows diskcheck with repair, where infact found 176k errors but states were fixed, but even in windows data is still coming as Season 1 (file not folder) at 0KB On the hard drive free space did not budge at all, meaning that the data is still there in some shape or form... Does anybody here have any idea on where I could start looking for a solution? Losing over 1000gigs of media is not cool!! Thanks!

hecker Posted April 7, 2009 Share Posted April 7, 2009 Why people insist on using third party software to access non-supported file systems on an already hacked OS is beyond me. I would suggest you boot windows XP or Vista and run R-Studio ( It is the best I know for recovering files). You will of course need another drive onto which to copy the files over. Reconstructing the partition table is also an option, albeit a very risky one since windows already "fixed" your drive (big thumbs down to MS there, as always). I'm sorry for your loss, dude. I hope you can fix it! Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/160932-massive-data-loss-corruption-on-ntfs/#findComment-1126748 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beerkex'd Posted April 7, 2009 Share Posted April 7, 2009 Oh man...this is why I keep my NTFS partitions read-only. Good luck with the recovery.
