Thread: NTFS Drives vanished


hey there,

morning when friend went start computer, took lot longer usual. once ubuntu had fired up, there lot of messages (something along lines of, "system program problem detected", options report problem or cancel.

when went view ntfs partitions, they'd complete vanished , ubuntu wouldn't see them.

tried using recovery console run fsck, came lot of errors. tried using gparted, showed partitions, when tried repair , check through gparted, said operation had completed didn't seem either. after that, tried running fdisk -l didn't show anything, except coming "bus error" message.

i'm beginning think drive possibly dead, there can use try , mount partition , try , data off it?

thanks.

if ntfs have run chkdsk windows?

ubuntu not mount ntfs partition if flagged needing chkdsk prevent further damage chkdsk may not able fix.

can check hard drive using disk utility, click on drive , @ smart data. know green good, can run tests , report lots of data.

if cannot mount ntfs partition may able see data testdisk or photorec part of testdisk.

hello! i'm trying setup software raid on server, fail @ first step: code: root@sandnabba:/root# mdadm -c /dev/md0 -c512 -l5 /dev/sdc1 /dev/sdd1 /dev/sde1 mdadm: no raid-devices specified. what doing wrong!? are sure -c equivalent --create? also, think need space after -c , -l options, value shouldn't command, or should have = between. @ man pages mdadm , double check spelling.
