Trying to recover data from an external HDD using USB to SATA cable...advice needed please

[wizardfromoz]

I never re-formatted any drive (just messed up the partition file format it would see)

(Wizard appears in a puff of smoke)

G'day Darren and welcome to linux.org

Can you clarify what you mean by the above, do you remember exactly what it was you did?

Did you perform the operation in Terminal or on the GUI (desktop)?

Hi Chris,

If only I could remember what I did! I played with so many tools I've lost count!

Cheers
Darren
