yeah... well i was doing a routine drag and drop backup on a part of my HD thats just for the music, movies, pics and preferences files... i got a bootable backup aside for the things in my computer.
point is... these movies dont fit in my computer so they were in this movies folder in the HD partition. when i did the backup i accidentally dragged the movies folder from the computer and it replaced the movies folder with all my movies... my home collection of dvds that i backed up in case the disks get messed up.

i have no idea what else to do... i did 3 types of recovery with boomerang... which has worked perfectly on my dads eHD, but i only get about 15 of the... maybe 50 movies i had backed up.
i dont know what else to do... i only have about 400GB left of space on the HD.... so i dont want to ask the computer to look for any more than that when doing the recovery.

any ideas?!
thanks!
