looking for good data recovery software

[simberdavid]

I have a hdd with an issue that I can't access my data, when I look in disk management it says there is a healthy "RAW" partition, I googled what that was and an article said it was when there was something wrong with the formatting, it said that a I could fix it with software, I found like a gazillion different applications for this, which should i use and how do I use it?

First thing make a image of the drive with a program like dd rescue.

 

Then if you want a free program use photorec and recuvra.

If that does not work, and if the info on the disk is very important, you could use a professional software. Look on LTT channel and see the videos.
