CNET editors' review

Reviewed by: CNET Staff

This powerful tool recovers deleted partitions, files, and more, but it could be a tad complex for novice users. Arax Disk Doctor Data Recovery's interface is a lesson in good design. Information windows are easily resized, and toolbars and file menus are logically placed and everything is well-documented.

Novice-friendly wizards make it a snap to search for and recover deleted files. The time to scan a drive is entirely dependent on its size and complexity. Unfortunately, this utility doesn't estimate the time needed. You can easily stop a scan before it completes, but our tests took only moments for a 465GB drive. The wizard includes many novice-friendly options to simplify finding the deleted files. Restoring a recoverable file takes a mere click. Every step of the wizard is available through direct options for the advanced user.

Arax Disk Doctor Data Recovery is flexible enough to handle most drive types and partition problems. The demo version is limited to restoring files of less than 64KB and cannot recover partitions. This utility is strong enough for all advanced users and can be easily operated by novices. Recovering files is logical, efficient, and speedy. We can easily recommend this program for all users needing to recover lost files and repair drive partitions.

    Version: Arax Disk Doctor Data Recovery 3.1

    "Tried 6 others before selecting Disk Doctor"

    by bobfox321 on August 5, 2009

    Pros: Our 17 year old computer genius got all our family network computers ruined. All of the disk directories were gone. I tried 6 other supposed recovery programs. Some would recover a few but only DD recovered 100% of everything.

    Cons: Earlier versions were obviously authored by a geek in geek language. This version is a 180 turn. It is vastly easier to use and understand. This company listened to my complaints and earlier reviews.

    Summary: You have to be nuts if you do not evaluate this superior product. In my case, I did have to add a new and clean disk and OS to make it work but I got back 100% of everything on all 6 disks. Needless to say, son no longer has access to home computer... read more >>
