I was editing last night and everything was fine. I tried to finish this morning and all my files were corrupted on the SSD. Thank god for Disk Drill. SAVED MY BUTT
What a fab piece of software! I downloaded the free version to have a go at what I thought was a totally dead Terrabyte hard drive. After a few hours Disk Drill had made a backup copy and then I was able to recover the free version’s limit of 500MB in a few minutes.
I was so chuffed that I purchased the full version and, after a few more hours, had restored approximately 700GB (yes, Gigabytes) of precious memories that I thought I’d never see again.
This software is bloody awesome and great value. Thank you Disk Drill team!
Disk drill is amazing, it does so much more than it was advertised to do.
In mid-2023 I used a 1.5. T Flash drive to back up all of my pictures, over 25,000 of them, and all of my documents. Less than a week later, my computer crashed, and when I tried to use the backup flash drive, it said it was corrupted. I truly thought I had lost all my files for the past 10 years.
I downloaded the Pro version of Disk Drill, because I knew I had a lot more than 500 megabytes of information to retrieve and was hoping to get back at least half.
Disk Drill Was able to retrieve 97% of the lost Files and pictures!! The additional three per cent were pictures that were duplicates and I shouldn’t have kept anyway.
January 2024, my computer crashed again, and I finally got a new computer, the old one was a 2012, and realized I didn’t have the dot .exe file to reinstall Disk Drill to retrieve the lost information.
I went to Cleverfiles.com and after a short chat and only giving my name and e-mail address, within 3 minutes they sent me the original e-mail from 1 year ago with all of the installation information, the download link and the License Key.
Disk Drill is not only a superior program, but they also have fantastic Customer Service!
Yesterday I deleted files in my One Drive without remembering that it’s connected to my laptop. Happily selected all files. And all the files on my laptop were happily deleted. Well done, Oskhie! 😩
Thank God, there’s Disk Drill! I’m able to retrieve the essential documents! 😁
I somehow managed to lose all my files and thanks to Disk Drill i was able to recover them all! Thank you for saving years of work, my sanity and my sleep 🙂
I bought a brand new license after I lost some data, even though I already owned a license for a previous version. The support team *noticed* and sent me an email letting me know that they'd be *refunding me half the price* since I already owned a previous license. I didn't ask for a discount, I didn't expect a discount—these guys are incredible!
(tech nonsense)
I managed to recover the data from two dead drives, both Toshibas, but neither of the drives has the important data that I’ve lost. I used an app called ‘Disk Drill’ (@Cleverfiles) which I kind of feel obligated to promote given how many other apps failed.
I have one more laptop drive to try. I don’t think it will work. I also have one 5.25 that I”m pretty sure I’ll have to send out for recovery.
One thing that I find frustrating on Mac’s: it’s almost impossible to force the OS to recognize a drive. So I open Disk Drill, open mac’s native disk utility, and then use terminal to try to force the matter. It seems to work. 😉
Downloaded this in a panic after losing a very important budget spreadsheet (somehow reverted to a much earlier version). No idea how it worked but it instantly found the up to date version and has saved the day! Thank you disk drill
I’ve a few issues after upgrading my Mac to 14.1. After an update version that I’ve using was no longer supported, but Davie in 1h handled & solved everything what is need to run Disk Drill on the newest MacOs.
I am on an extended trip in Asia and lost a whole day’s SD card as I tried a “recommended!” download by cable instead of my normal card reader.
I thought I had lost all the files but Disk Drill found them all and with Pro I could recover and download them. I didn’t have Disk Drill before the trip but they were incredibly helpful in explaining how it works.
I should have bought and installed it before my trip….a must have App for photographers.
