Due to its inherent limitations, file carving is the last choice, not the first choice. Therefore I would not start with that approach.
Instead, IMHO get a better diagnosis of the real problem first i.e. just attaching a disk via USB should not corrupt files, so what exactly has happened in your case? Better recovery and/or understanding of the filesystem state, can prevent the need to use file carving.
However if you are angry that I have not answered your specific question, then just ignore this reply
P.S. I see that you have asked the same question on at least one other forum e.g.:
http://www.forensicfocus.com/Forums/vie ... p=6558385/
so I suggest that any readers here may want to check that thread, to prevent wasting their time duplicating any replies which might appear there.
