    "A Must Have"

    April 10, 2012  |   By curtis29y

    Pros

    Nice GUI and wide set of features. Recovery vault will be the most advanced function.

    Cons

    Nothing negative to say. The software does an excellent job of data recovery.

    Summary

    I accidentally unplugged my external HDD I've been using happily as a Time Machine on my MBP. Once disk was plugged back in, it showed the following message: "This disk is not formatted, do you wish to format?"
    I tried Disk Drill to recover data as I remembered someone who used this software with success. When I saw it had found the files I wanted, I pay for Pro version and recovered all of them.
    Thanks for such a nice data recovery tool. This sits in the MUST HAVE list of utilities!
