Great info, although I'm now baffled by statement about recovering small sections at a time rather than recovering ALL. I ran Recuva (24 hours) to recover over 29000 files (including Videos, Photos & Music) in full swoop. Now I'm concerned that there may be some files missing. I'm not really concerned about the videos & music, but the Photos is more important than anything else. So it seems I will have to try and recuva each photo folder one at time just to be on the safe side to make sure it tries to recover every photo. I'm not saying it has missed anything in the one step approach, its just that I have no way to confirm that every photo was recovered and by recovering one folder at a time I will then be able to compare and see if it indeed recover more files or if it covered the same number of files.

Is there a way that Recuva can also recover the files in the same directory structure as they were discovered on the bad Hard Drive, in other words, can Recuva recreate the same directory structure that existed on the bad drive and then recover the files so that all files recovered do not end up in ONE directory?
