Hello There,

I have a hard disk Seagate ST500DM002. It has 4 partition. Partition size is 65 Gb for OS and 100 x 4 For data. I use windows 7 ultimate x64 as os. Few days ago a completed my work at night and shutdown PC. But shutdown take 20 minutes. next day when i switch on my PC. I didn't see hard disk in bios or not windows 7 load. i try it to my friend house but no luck. Hard disk power on and no suspicious clicking noise or other fault. I went computer shop and submit my drive for checking purpose. after 2 hours shop keeper ask me to come their shop. he plugged my hard disk in to external USB encloser and power it on. suddenly after 20 minutes hard disk appear and show 5 partition one by one and suddenly disappear again. shop keeper said me that one of your partition got currupt or have bad sector so that this problem arise. Only one thing get your data back that you must delete all partition from it and any good data recovery software will do the rest for you to get back your data. I have personal photos inside. I can't access hard disk as a internal because there is not detected at all and can't access via USB encloser because of in sort time it is disappear. I want to know that how i delete this partition and which partition recovery software i use for get my data back?

Thank You,

"Don't do that, a DR pro (not a "computer repair shop") doesn't do this nonsense, as a matter of fact, a pro DR doesn't write to user area at all,
maybe there is bad sectors mabey not, but first need to deal with some things first, like (maybe) slow respond...
Anyway if data is valuable to you then don't gamble with your data, and send it to a pro DR firm.

Totally agree.

I think the idiot who gave you the advice to delete your files in order to recover them, should be sued.

You'd be surprised how many times we've heard this sort of story.

"Just format the drive and then run recovery software"

Total bullcrap in 99% of cases.

Had many clients like that "I formatted the drive so that I could recover the data, but it didn't work...."
