Data recovery from FAT32?

Question

Data recovery

Hello
Tell me if it is possible to recover data from a CompactFlash flash card transferred from a card to a PC. After that, the card was not formatted. If yes, what app do you recommend?

Answer 1

Try to use R-Studio, it saved me more than once.

Answer 2

If you are not confident in your abilities, then it is better to give it to professionals.
If you decide to do it yourself, then firstly make a full dump of the card, which is better and work with any recovery program that suits you (depending on the OS).

Answer 3

The first and most important advice has already been voiced - to professionals. If you want to experiment yourself, you need Linux. First, use dd to take a complete dump from the map, which you keep as the apple of your eye. Then experiment with the map. Or, if the card allows, put hardware write protection on it and work with the image.

Answer 4

More than once rescued Active @ File Recovery. If after deleting the data on the card nothing has changed, there is a great chance to recover the data. A couple of times I had to restore photos from the cards of friends, most of them managed to be saved.

Answer 5

And here's another interesting, how can I recover data from the cards in which the controller died? I understand that for this you need to read data from a flash memory chip, but as a rule, cheap chip cards have 2 pieces - rejection, two 512 MB flash chips make a 512 MB flash card. Suppose it is not a problem to dump a dump from both microcircuits, but what to do next, how to reduce them to one image? What methods of data organization (byte by byte or sector/page interleave, page/sector size, determine which m/s is even) are used in such cases? How and where are “bad” areas marked?
