Thank you for the helpful insight for Mac users. Today is the first time I have used Disk Drill due to a huge blunder by myself, whereby I had two external WD HDDs attached to transfer data from one to the other, when I plugged in the power to my MacBook Pro, but did not switched it on! When I returned, neither HDD would mount and even on my Windows PC.
On the Mac at the moment I am running 'All recovery methods' on one of the 4TB HDDs, so it will likely take some time; which I presume is difficult to estimate as only 'This shouldn't be too long...' is shown. When the run has completed, could you advise the best next steps please? Should I let the software do its automatic steps, by selecting the recover button? Or should I 'Mount found items as disk'? I wonder the best way forward as in another video on Quick vs. Deep scans, I understand that for deep scans, the data mining does not keep folders and sub folders, so as I have many images that are coded and dated, it would be very difficult to re-arrange; although I would be unbelievably grateful just to have the data recovered!
Thank you in advance for any advice you can provide, as recovering this data is a genuine saviour for me.

Hi! thanks for the video - 1)after saving the session for the external 4TB HDD, can I unplug the faulty 4TB HDD and then continue the process once plugged in without a lenghty iitial scan? 2) if the HDD was formated by mistake, is it possible to simply rebuild the previous state of the HDD before the formating? (MAC)

Hi I have a USB drive, I am in the process of recovering the data from 3TB, I left it overnight to do its thing, I got up to check to see how far it got and it isn't moving anymore, also it says remaining time is14hr48m remaining, what should I do from here? should recover what I have now?
Thanks,
Chilly.

Is the saved recover session as big as all the recovered files so far? For example, 100gb has been recovered. Does it mean that the saved session is 100gb as well? Thanks.

I do not want to recover the whole drive, I just want to recover what I lost on a specific date. How do I do that? Is there a video tutorial for that?

Shot in the dark but would it work on a external hard drive used for a Xbox one? I know files are formatted different between computers and console.
