I think there is a fair chance that we may be able to come up with such file header (that you may be able to import in the tool?) but I do not see any chance that your database files sit there without fragmentation :-( What formatting does your old disk have? If it was really no longer used after you started using the new disk, an analysis of the file system tables might be a better approach. Note e.g. that most FATx file system (but this is really old) implementations only mangle a file name entry to mark the file as deleted. Undeleting such files is easy, and 100% successful if none its resources have been allocated to another file after the deletion. Good luck!

Why? It contains a definitive record of application performance, security threats, fraudulent activity, and more. Splunk takes this data and makes sense of it. IT sense. And common sense. http://p.sf.net/sfu/splunk-d2d-c2 _______________________________________________ Scid-users mailing list Scid-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/scid-users
