Recover file

Postby Sabatino » Fri Apr 02, 2010 7:40 am

Hi all;
I have a divx reader with hard disk connected by a wireless network to my PC: while I was renaming some folders the network went down and the folders become files, so now are unreadable.
Now, when I connect the network drive, in the left column I have 8 folders (instead of the 10 that I had before) and two files of 0kb.
Before this problem these two files were two folders containing hundreds of files.
How can I restore them? remember that I don't have a physical access to the drive, only by network.
Thank you

Well you may have to remove the disk from the divx device and connect it to your PC so you can run a recovery application on it. It's just a standard hard disk inside, most likely. I've had good success with GetDataBack. If somebody knows how to do it over the network, you can do that, but I'm skeptical on that front.
