![]() Partition 3 extended LBA: I have no idea what this is. Partition 2: this is the one I care about reading in Windows which unfortunately is the one which is RAW. Partition 1: probably some factory default backup section which I don't care about but it would be nice to keep. I attempted to make the drive readable by windows by writing the new partition table which testdisk recommended, however the write failed. This is where testdisk comes in, I was able to perform a deep scan and find the missing partition with all of my friend's data on it and subsequently was able to back up all of the important stuff. Upon booting Windows I noticed that about 350GB of data was RAW and the rest was blank NFTS. I performed this fix and was successfully able to view the drive in the bios again. Here's the story (skip this paragraph if you don't want to read it, it's not too important): my friend's 750GB 7200.11 Seagate drive decided to go into the BSY state one day and became undetectable by the bios. I'm attempting to make the entire drive readable by Windows again however I am having difficulty. First off, I was able to copy the important data to a different hard drive so right now I am just doing this for more brownie points.
