Okay, I have a slight problem on my hands that I am hoping you lovely people can assist with. Basically, I have a 1 Tb WD hard drive, which had roughly 650GB of data contained on it. It had windows 7 installed on it, yet was plugged into another computer which was running XP. A mate of mine used software to attempt to create a partition in the disk, I don't really know why, but he did. Anyway during the creation of this partition he said that his brother knocked the power cord and the computer turned off. Then when the computer was rebooted there was only about 70 or so GB of data remaining and this data was in different locations.

My question is fairly obvious, is there anyway as to which I can recover this lost data? If so, how do I do this? And roughly how much is possible to recover?

Thanks for any help in advance. :)

Cheers, So I take it that even though it was lost while creating a partition and not just deleted from the hard drive this doesn't matter?
