It searches only the free space of a volume for any files based on file patterns. This function is used when your drive is working properly but files have been accidentally deleted through the Mac OS. This is the one I tested for this review. Lastly, the most important function of Data Rescue 3 for me is its 'Deleted Files Scan' which will search your drive for any recently deleted or lost files. Should you have a file type that is not supported or recognized by Data Rescue 3 you use the 'File IQ' to drag the file type to Data Rescue to enable it to learn new file types. Data Rescue's 'Analyze' function verifies your drive's ability to read data but is not used to recover data. This clone can then be scanned which may help improve recoverability of missing data and can be especially helpful when it may be hardware issues that are presenting problems. This may take longer to complete than the Quick Scan function and, by recommendation, should be used in only the more severe situations.ĭata Rescue 3 also has a 'Clone' function, which can make an exact copy of your drive. You also have the choice to run a 'Deep Scan' to find recoverable files on your drive. It can do a 'Quick Scan' which will utilize existing directory info should your drive fail to mount and should be the first choice of action if that happens.
There are several functional choices you can make when using Data Rescue 3. This results in both faster scanning of your drives and quicker recovery of lost data. This is installed via your disc drive and can be then found in your applications folder.ĭata Rescue 3 runs as a 64-bit application on Mac OS10.6 or later.

It arrives in its own box containing a sheet of paper with a serial number you are warned not to lose, and the Data Rescue 3 disc. You might never need it, but should the time come that you do, you will be happy that it is there as it does what it says it does, it can recover those lost files and unexplainably trashed media. ProSoft Engineering has had their data recovery software out for some time but not many people know about it yet. In the past, trying to recover data from a crashed drive could easily cost a thousand dollars or more, trying to recover any form of media by yourself was often a lesson in futility and the heart pounding, ear shattering screams of "Oh S**T", didn't help at all.
