Data recovery software

Terry · 2012-11-15 21:24:49

I'm trying to recover files from a 3.5" HDD which is borked. It's at the clicking stage. I've used EASEUS before on a 2.5" in the same condition, and it worked fine, but I'm not having any joy this time. Can anyone recommend any other reliable programmes, please?

Gets messy if one of these 3 don't work.

Thanks.
EASEUS ended up recognising the HDD, but didn't find any files.
I'll try those.
