Try Runtimes Raid Reconstructor. I used it once on a Raid5, it was a hard and long process. No way will I say it will work in your situation. I had to tell it the order of drives and it still found multiple raids in the MFT and it was trial and error on which one was correct.

Never gotten a partition back, I have used getback (ntfs and fat versions 2 and 3) http://www.runtime.org/data-recovery-products.htm, to recover data from multiple formatted disks, damaged disks (bad sectors and read errors), and other problems. I consider it very slow, since it seems to examine every sector. It is very simple and easy to use. I have also used driveimage off the ubcd4win to upgrade my laptop from 20gb to 40gb using a usb hdd, again kinda slow (but did not have to go out and buy the 2.5" ide adapters).

Anyone have any ideas for rebuilding the MFT after corrupting the primary and backup version of it on a hard drive for a Toshiba laptop? Hoping that if the MFT is gone (both versions) the data is still there and may be recoverable somehow?

Does anyone here have any decent stress test tools? When we get a new server we like to soak test it on the bench for a couple of days, but what Id like to do is run some tests on it that stress the CPU, Memory, HDD's etc... Does anyone do this, and if so what do you use? Iv looked at UBCD, but it has too many things on it really, Id like something I can boot the server with and it just gets on with it, it would be handy if it runs inside Windows as well as being a boot disk. -- Gavin Wilby.
