Hi,

Here's the scenario:

Filesystem is NTFS and contains some mbox mail files. I need to identify the blocks on the HDD used by these files and only image those specific blocks with ddrescue instead of the entire partition and recover those files.

Any ideas, recommendations & links?


The old (1999) windows tool nfi.exe can be used to map file path names to logical block numbers and vice versa. Still works on Win7 if disk uses MBR partition table. The tool was carefully hidden :-) in some OEM support tools package which is still available here:
