ST1000LM024 HN-M101MBB/LC2 Data Recovery

January 4th, 2023, 15:57

Hello, after an unsuccessful partition resize, chkdsk "repaired" the problems on the drive. So now I can access the drive, all the files are in place but I receive error messages when I try to open them. The are exactly the same size, they have the same date but they are not the same - I have a backup ~1 year old. Probably the file with the allocation table was messed. Is there a way to recover the data ? Thank you. File system NTFS, Windows 10.

1) Data already got shifted to orignal MFT adressing, you should continue process or do nothing.
2) chkdisk reorganized MFT and killed (deleted) things which could help to recover data after previous action.
