I know you can try to recover it but for what I was trying to get, not all the data was necessary however this is based on a case, by case basis so do with this info what you will. I will also say that it took me 3 hours to recover the data because if a file isn't recoverable you need to skip it by manually pressing it. I don't know why people say the interface is intimidating, I found it simple to use just as it's laid out. With that said, I will be recommending and if I need to in the future purchasing DMDE as it works. Now I wan't to say that it was more than 4k files that I recovered but I'm not gonna count, so maybe that's why it never stopped me from completing the recovery. I was ready to purchase the program but the prompt never popped up to do so as it allowed me to recover all of my data unlimited. With that said I was able to recover about 95% of my pictures, docs, videos. I didn't clone it, I know, I know, I do have a Wavlink Docking station but didn't have a spare HDD to clone to and figured if the data was gone, it was gone. I love to keep most of my data and this is for someone else not myself as I have back ups of my backups but do see a business opportunity in having a skill set and tool to do this for others who just want to recover some old pics/documents and don't know how.ĭMDE helped recover all of my files in the RAW drive. I have tried both free version of the program so I know for a fact the HDD I am trying to recover, at least the data I need is recoverable problem is I am limited to 1gb for each under the free program.Īny data experts or even those who have used these programs please let me know what you use them for and was it worth it.

My question to you all is which one is a better purchase and can I use it for both MAC and PC. I just want to know between Minitool Partition Wizard or EaseUs which of the two is the better lifetime purchase as I know I will be offering my data recovery service to others to try an recuperate the cost of the program.
