Data recovery software reviews -

MiniTool Power Data Recovery In order to gain a better understanding of data recovery knowledge, I have enquired many

materials on data recovery software. To sum up, these materials suggest that most data

recovery software possess the same function with few differences. Some were developed

to direct at one certain data loss circumstance, which in my point of view is a waste of

resource. All those functions can be integrated into one data recovery software just

like MiniTool Power Data Recovery which impressed me the most by recovering data

under diverse data loss scenarios with comprehensive functions. Moreover, it is totally

free of charge.

Techniques for data recovery

1. Unnecessary of full scan

There is no need for user to full scan all clusters on the entire partition to merely search

accidentally deleted files no matter what data recovery software whether possessing quick

scan method or not to be used. When deleting files, operating system will merely mark the

directory structure. Any data recovery software will firstly read directory structure

information before scan and search deleted files in compliance with deleting mark.

Therefore, user could interrupt cluster scanning process manually after data recovery

software has read partition directory structure information to slash plenty of time to search

deleted files.

2. Adopt NTFS partition as much as possible

MFT of NTFS is stored on hard disk in file form. That's why EasyRecovery and

Recovery4all enjoy such high speed when full scanning NTFS partition. In fact, those data

recovery software don't really perform cluster scan but list partition file information

according to MFT information to out weigh other data recovery software at scanning

speed which scans NTFS partition cluster one by one. Nevertheless, this method is

incredibly efficient to scan NTFS partition which has well over safety performance than

FAT.

3. skillfully set cluster scanning range

Setting cluster scanning range serves as an efficient means to accelerate scanning speed.

Default scanning method of MiniTool Power Data Recovery allows user to set cluster

scanning range to cut down scanning time. Certainly, some techniques are required to

judge locations of files on hard disk.

To sum up, MiniTool Power Data Recovery possesses all above-mentioned functions to

be the representative product of data recovery software. On the basis of customer first

principle, MiniTool Solution Ltd. has developed MiniTool Power Data Recovery for user

freely with powerful functions. User may download MiniTool Power Data Recovery

After running MiniTool Power Data Recovery, user would see five modules in the
