Thank you for the welcome and the advice - I will probably use Data Doctor Recovery NTFS because it keeps most of the file names intact - i tried it today on some archives and it worked ok..now i just need to get a bigger HDD..the scanning process took alot of time but at least it makes a log so if don't have enough space u can do the recovery by selecting what u need each time without having to redo the scan everytime.
Oh one more thing i wanted to ask - after i'm done recovering the stuff should i just try formatting the HDD the regular way..by now i guess the problem is not physical, would a simple formatting make it reusable ?
