I'm trying to run a deep scan on a 1TB hard drive that was accidentally formatted (or at least partially formatted). It was progressing at a slow but steady clip, but now it's been stuck at 16% for about 12 hours with the estimated time remaining has jumped from 16 hours prior to it hitting 16% to now 4 days. I can still hear the HDD making noises though.
Should I let it keep running or is it stuck? Recuva hasn't thrown any errors or anything. Could it be hung up on a bad block or something and it's never going to progress?
Are there any options I should try to help it along (if i have to start the process over).
