I used the numbers derived, as recommended on the net, to re-Analyze testdisk.Ĭylinders 121601 heads 255 sectors 63 size 512 it seems that others on the internet have a similar strange geometry as well, see link: LBA: 1953525168 does not fit exactly into 255 heads 63 sectors, there is a decimal place. ![]() So it seems that sectors = 1953525168 x 512 sector size = 1 terabyte, that seems to fit. Western Digital Caviar Black, 64 mb cache, model: WD1001FAES-00W7A0 I got some further geometry information after consulting Western Digital support centre, as It did not detect the second partition.ĭisk Management also reads two “drives”, both RAW, in the correct sizes 687.37 gig & 244.14 gig. ![]() however, the reported geometry is (probably) wrong. So what happened was, it managed to detect the first partition as “Drive J:” with the correct size. One day the whole hard disk became undetectable.Īfter testdisk Analyze taking 72 hours, it was detected asĭrive J: - 738 GB / 687 GiB - WD My Book 3.0 1123 Original FAT table was unchanged from purchase, i’m not sure if it’s FAT32 or NTFS ![]() Hi, anyone has any thoughts about my case? here’s a summary:ġ terabyte My Book 3.0 partitioned into 687.37 gig & 244.14 gig
