Can Recuva do this?

Hi,

I've got a damaged hard drive (registers a RAW filesystem) which I've been scanning with another piece of software. Unfortunately almost all of the files obtained from it are corrupted (with the notable exception of most files within zips). I didn't quite understand from the website - can Recuva carry out the same function (hopefully with more success)???

Thanks in advance, and sorry if I am repeating something, I'm a bit short of time.

To my knowledge, Recuva tries to save files that have been deleted via the Recycle Bin- I do not believe it is meant to work as a recover-er for files on a busted harddrive.
