Hi
I'm looking for some advice and help with this following issue.
I installed a 3TB drive into my PC system for data retension and it has a non UEFI bios, I formatted the drive with GPT layout to then have the drive corrupt one night after getting 2TB+ of data onto the drive.
I did a bit digging to find that there seems to be an issue with Intel matrix storage drivers/software as +2TB drive aren't properly supported with any version less than 10. Which has also changed name to Intel Rapid Storage Technology, which is currently on v11.
To add to the issues when I uninstall the old driver and rebooted, windows them deleted a mass of orphan files from the drive then the entries for the files from the boot record for the partition!!!
So currently now the drive has about 100Gb of generic recovered data which makes no sense and the system now sees a 2.7TB partition again (Previously showed as raw unformatted)
What I really need help with is recovery of the data from the drive I'm having a massive issue trying find something that can deal with this since its GPT. Does anyone some advice or can recommend a recovery program that can find the data?
Currently I have ordered another 3TB drive to recover the data too.
So please please can you help!
