(Or whatever flavor you like best) Question 22: 1. What is required for Ubuntu Linux to support Advanced Format drives? Ubuntu 10.04 and RHEL6.x or later have native support. - WJR On Thu, Jul 28, 2011 at 12:15, Jimmy Tran <[email protected]> wrote: Yes, I did read through that doc. Maybe I missed something but lets say the OS is corrupt and I need to pull user data off that drive. How in the world do I do it if my W7 box shows the disk partition as raw?

In the package I found a yellow notice about 512e drives. So I read about this and it looks like the partitioning of the drive is different. My W7 box doesn't recognize the partition. Does anyone know how I can access the data on this drive from an external box?
