is there a disk utility to recover data?

[alent1234]

i have a hard drive i use mostly in Windows that i lost data and want to recover it. i've played with some of the free utilities on the internet but they either take too long or aren't very good. since Tiger reads NTFS partitions i was going to try it on my Mac Mini.

i usually use a laptop and don't have time to leave the recover running for 10 hours or more. any good free utilities out there?

If you have data that needs to be recovered, you can try Disk Warrior or Data Rescue 3 or File Salvage

But those are not free

You can also try JFileRecovery or SafeCopy

Honestly, they are all going to take time and free disk space
