Back in Jan I posted about photos disappearing from an SD card. I
tried a couple of free recovery programs mentioned on here. Either
they retrieved a lot of files with unrecognized data, or retrieved
only a few photos. Then I got Scandisk's RescuePro and Voila! it
successfully recovered almost a 100 photos. This was done using a card
reader connected to my desktop.
Then my friend (who was on the same trip) got a new dual core laptop
with a built-in card reader. When he put that particular card in, I
noticed even without recovering, a few more photos showed up. So I
installed RescuePro on his machine, and WOW! recovered 160 photos!! So
both software and hardware matters when recovering photos.
BTW that card has bad sectors - so guess I'll reformat it and use it
for unimportant stuff.
Why??? Destroy the bloody thing, why risk loosing shots ever again, the
cards are cheap.
