I was moving files from an exFAT Sandisk flash drive to an external HDD when Finder froze, ejected the flash drive, and somehow lost all the files mid-transfer. I purchased Disk Warrior, only to find out that it doesn’t support exFAT.
I came across Disk Drill and figured I’d give it a try. The free trial was great. I was able to inspect the drive, create a backup disk image (to prevent further corruption on the physical flash drive), and analyze the recoverable files. I was nervous at first, but when I located two albums’ worth of recording sessions on the disk, a weight was lifted. The only thing left to do was purchase a license and recover the data.
Purchasing was easy, and there were even some excellent discount options available. The team was very helpful and responsive. My files were successfully recovered, and now I’m considering purchasing a RAID-configured NAS for a safe and secure on-prem backup, as well as using something like rsync to sync that to a cloud provider like Amazon S3 or Google Storage.
Disk Drill is well-made, easy to use, and will be my go-to the next time I need to recover files — hopefully never. I highly recommend it.
Thanks so much for saving my projects!
Had such a very good tech support from their team
They replied even on a Sunday morning…
I give them 5 starts
I repeat: SAVED. MY. ASS.
Disk Drill offers numerous functions, among which my favorite is its capability to recover permanently deleted photos from iPhone. It has proven incredibly helpful, especially when I accidentally delete the wrong photo, such as a screenshot.
Thank you so much!
I’ve tried a few MacOs recovery programs. This one is by-far the best available anywhere! I am a pro photographer and we all make mistakes, like formatting a disk in camera and then realizing you didn’t download the files late last night when you got home. No other software that I am aware of will recover files written by a camera to an SSD card. Disk Drill DOES! Without failure. It’s accurate, quick, and absolutely will save you headaches or having to tell a client you lost their files… A must have piece of software!
I accidently deleted my partition and this software helped me to recover my files worth over million of rupees. Definitely recommend this software to everyone
You don’t need Disk Drill till you need Disk Drill. And then it’s essential to get recovery operations initiated. I had such an emergency back in July of 2022 and Disk Drill save my bacon.
Back to the future, nearly 2 years later I have another situation that requires Disk Drill. I’m on a new computer so all I had was an email reference from the support team at Cleverfiles and an activation code from my records.
With that I made an inquiry at 7:30am on the east coast.
Within minutes I had confirmation I had an evergreen account and the activation code from my records was all I needed.
Just remarkable to get that kind of response before the open of business. I do so appreciate it.
Now to retrieving…
Disk drill have been are savior for several years now. It always saves us from pain whenever we got issue with our sd cards. Lately I need to re-install the software and for some reason can't find the activation key in my email and not sure what email I used.
After messaging support. I got a quick reply from David S and was able to look for it immediately and help me with it.
It was a superb customer service!
the only software that managed to find me formatted data.
Super efficient, really surprised by the results on HDD CF OR SD.
customer service is top-notch, fast and efficient, and as user-friendly as the software.
Thanks
Just retrieved a bunch of super important photos I had deleted by mistake on my flash drive.
Saved me over 10 hours of driving back and forth to the spot…
