Good luck!
It might give me an hint as to what is the status of the disk.
No, it coudn't find any partition table after 2 passes.

Hi all,
A friend of mine gave me his hard disk to try to rescue data from it. It
is a 500GB SATA drive which was in an USB enclosure. His machine
(Windows XP) is unable to detect it when the enclosure is connected.
I connected it in my machine (internal SATA) and just did a ddrescue of
the disk
KS:
r...@sysresccd /root % mount -o loop -t iso9660
Why do you mount the dump file from ddrescue as ISO image? Doesn't the
subject say it should actually contain an NTFS filesystem? I am
surprised that this actually works.

Ok...
The ISO image generated is about 466GB.
ISO? I thought you made an image of a NTFS

I tried with ntfs flag too and it doesn't
The filesystem on the disk is clearly toast. Mounting it as the wrong
type won't help. Start looking at forensics packages:
magicrescue - recovers files by looking for magic bytes
myrescue - rescue data from damaged harddisks
scrounge-ntfs - Data recovery program for NTFS filesystems

I think photorec is the right tool for you. It's part of the testdisk
package, which somebody mentioned already. I've used photorec several
times to recover files (all kinds, not just photos) from drives that
were unreadable by other means.

Install smartmontools and try to run smartctl -a /dev/sdb on it. Then
post the output. It might
