I have a 2TB hard drive with 2 partitions. It got partition by a program into 5gb accidentally.
I tried using Disk Drill Pro to recover the lost partitions and it could see it but could not rebuild because of the existing 5GB. So, I deleted the 5GB partition with disk utility tried again with Disk Drill Pro and I could not see the lost partition to rebuild.
I used TestDisk earlier to get the maps of each partition. I used pdisk’s terminal and partitioned it to the maps provided by TestDisk. Now the first partition 1.8gb, won’t mount on disk utility!
What should I do? Are my files gone? Should I repair the catalog file with Disk Utility?
Here are the disk details
With the 5GB;
Partition map ( 2048 byte block ) on /dev/
#: type name length base ( size )
1: Apple_partition_map Apple 15 @ 1
2: Apple_HFS disk image 2637456 @ 16 ( 5.0G)
3: Apple_Free 3 @ 2637472
Device block size=2048, Number of Blocks=2637475 ( 5.0G)
Device Type=0x0 DeviceId=0x0
After I deleted the 5GB using Disk Utility:
Partition map ( 512 byte block ) on /dev/rdisk2/
#: type name length base ( size )
1: Apple_partition_map Apple 63 @ 1
2: Apple_Free. 3906363456 @ 64 ( 1.8T)
Device block size=512, Number of Blocks=3906963456 (1.8T)
Device Type=0x0 DeviceId=0x0
After changing the map to TestDisk’s using pdisk
Partition map ( 512 byte block ) on /dev/rdisk2/
#: type name length base ( size )
1: Apple_partition_map Apple 63 @ 1
2: Apple_Free Extra 448 @ 64
3: Apple_HFS My 3882374848 @ 512 ( 1.8T)
4: Apple_Free 24588096 @ 3882375360 ( 11.7G)
Device block size=512, Number of Blocks=3906963456 (1.8T)
Device Type=0x0 DeviceId=0x0
