Anyone reading this a data recovery guru?
I have 30 Gb of fantastic footage relating to the Ballarat National Rally and the journey to and from there LOCKED on my micro SD card! :cuss
When I got home, I was deleting an unrequired file, when the process locked up. I pressed cancel and it eventually went off the screen, however, after an OS refresh, the pooter told be there was no card inserted. I ejected it, re-inserted and am now told the card needs to be formatted - format now? :||||
I haven't done this yet until I ask you braniacs. I am certain the info is still on there - just unaccessible.
Do you have any constructive advice, or somewhere for me to send the card to attempt a data recovery? :phone
Here is an example..... Data Recovery Specialist (http://www.datadetect.com.au/?gclid=CP2G9PqP0L0CFcwipQodo3cARg) - but they want $280 if successful, FREE if not. :eek
Took it to one shop who wanted a $45 'booking in' fee before they'd even touch it. :-(((
Prepared to pay around $30 to have it fixed. Any ideas?
Cheers, Diesel

Dave, I suppose you have tried putting it back in the camera and connecting the camera to the PC?
-
Send it to me, I have software ( pandora recovery) that should do the job
-
Not tried a mac yet - HAVE tried putting it back in the cam etc - thx for the ideas.
@Brock - thx mate - PM sent.
Cheers, Diesel

Brock if you cannot retrieve with Pandora, let me know as i have full reg copy of Getdataback for NTFS and FAT

Okay - I tried the Pandora thingy - but can't get far enough for it to be effective. As soon as I put the SD card in, it tells me the card needs to be formatted. It is not that I am chasing deleted files - I just get a drive with 0 Kb and a request to format the card.
Does this help?
