You might want to do a search for a program called "R-Studio" that costs $ 40 US. They make a version that handles NTFS and works great. I have used it both at home and at work for data recovery, with a 99% recovery rate. I own several different data recovery tools, including OnTrak, and this is my utility of choice due to the greater success I have had with it. (Not only will it recover a stand-alone drive, but also a RAID 5 set, with no problems). Good luck to you. Have had a couple drives take a total dump on me, so know how frusterating it can be. Robin
