Disk Drill Media Recovery For Mac

Erasing files by accident is not as uncommon as one would think: especially when dealing with system cleaning utilities you should be extra careful what you choose to delete. Disk Drill Media Recovery is an application designed to help you recover audio, video or images files lost in these situations.

To get started you must specify the disk you want to have analyzed by Disk Drill Media Recovery. The app can work with any storage device that can be mounted on your Mac: thumb drives, camera cards, external hard drives and more. However, it cannot recover data from iOS devices, such as iPhones, iPods or iPads.

Disk Drill Media Recovery provides multiple scanning methods which focus on specific file types. The “Quick Scan” and “Search for lost partitions” options are suitable for files that can be reconstructed or still have the metadata stored in the system.

At the same time, the “Deep Scan” mode can extract data taking into account the original filenames, signatures, properties or locations. Disk Drill Media Recovery is able to find music, photos or videos, but also applications or specific documents.

What’s more, you can use Disk Drill Media Recovery to create a backup DMG image which you can use later on in case the storage device fails completely. The app is able to work with most files systems, such as HFS, HFS+, FAT16, FAT32, NTFS, EXT3 or EXT4.

To optimize the process, Disk Drill Media Recovery offers you the possibility to use multiple filters in order to sort the found files. The scanning process usually takes time but thanks to the live preview option you can analyze the found files in real time.

Disk Drill Media Recovery has the potential to help you recover lost or accidentally deleted data from different storage devices.
