I thought the same as well but i was pleasantly surprised to recover data from an external drive of mine that has been formatted at least twice (ntfs). For completeness, I am now running 'EaseUS Data Recovery Wizard' which say it has found additional files (totalling 401 412 files so far). It will also take another 2 hours to run!

Will it load the whole file into RAM, edit it and then save it as the same name? If there is a very long file that it needs to either: Technically speaking, do we know how an Olympus digital voice recorder edits its data?Į.g.
