Hello,
the drive (NTFS) suddenly started to slow down the computer heavily. Also there were continous entries in error log of windows that it cannot read from a device (hdd). So i hook it up to Linux and here is the SMART data.
Code:
ID# ATTRIBUTE_NAME          FLAG     VALUE WORST THRESH TYPE      UPDATED  WHEN_FAILED RAW_VALUE
  1 Raw_Read_Error_Rate     0x002f   196   194   051    Pre-fail  Always       -       7693
  3 Spin_Up_Time            0x0027   175   174   021    Pre-fail  Always       -       6250

192 Power-Off_Retract_Count 0x0032   200   200   000    Old_age   Always       -       24
193 Load_Cycle_Count        0x0032   169   169   000    Old_age   Always       -       94711

197 Current_Pending_Sector  0x0032   200   200   000    Old_age   Always       -       17
198 Offline_Uncorrectable   0x0030   200   200   000    Old_age   Offline      -       3
199 UDMA_CRC_Error_Count    0x0032   200   200   000    Old_age   Always       -       0
200 Multi_Zone_Error_Rate   0x0008   200   200   000    Old_age   Offline      -       10

So i used ddrescue to clone the disk to another disk (not image). That went through with only a few errors and errsize of less than 1 MB and reasonable speed (~130MB/s).
But unfortunately the cloned disk shows empty. What would be the best option to recover the data?

Was it from a "MyBook" enclosure?

Can you show us sector 0 of the cloned drive?

    sudo dd count=1 bs=512 if=/dev/ice of=sector0.bin

... where /dev/ice is you cloned or patient drive.

The disk is not from a MyBook enclosure. It was connected as an internal drive to the motherboard controller.

Here is the requested file: http://filebin.ca/2tEKyIorVjCV/sector0.bin

mbr not encrypted, try tools like testdisk, dmde, r-studio to get your data back.

good look!

I haven't cloned the wrong drive.
Currently I am running a scan of r-studio (with default options) on the cloned disk. The NTFS partition showed up.
Before I ran testdisk and used it to recover (copy) some random files which completed successfully.
Let's see what r-studio can do once the scan is completed.
