Data revovery / restore overwrite
HI,
I have (now) 2 iMac's mid 2011. My old ones graphic card died, so I looked for another 2nd hand and found a great one with an 1TB SSD iso 1TB HDD.
In order to transfer my old data set up from my broken iMac, I removed the HDD in order to be able to install in a dock station and so recover / restore my old programs, settings and so on.
I checked 3 times to make sure the setting was correct before the restore via Disk Utillity... but after the restore I found out that the data from the new iMac was transfered to my HDD I had in the dock station...meaning it was overwritten...
I could shoot myself 10 times in the head for not taking the time to back up the old HDD... ( I usually do this always, but thinking it was child play with disk utility was a foolish thing to think).
So, I tried to recover data with data recovery software ( which it does ) but things like with Final Cut Pro events-projects are not traceable...
Anyways, guess you can get the gest of where I am...
Is there anyone out there that has a good solution to re capture my earlier HDD data settings ? If at all possible...
Thanks for any clue, direction, solution...
Best regards,
Luke.
Is dit een goede vraag?
