Does anyone knows the correct numbers( #cyl, #sectors, #what fat, …) of this External disk ?
what are HD Jumper settings ?
what’s the initial setup of this disks ?
I didn’t change factory settings, I’d like to compare with the original settings …
If I open the disk I can’t access about 500 GB of pictures, documents…

2000.36 GB NTFS
testdisk 7.O Wip data recovery says Chs 243197 255 63
disk 2000 GB / 1862 Gib seems too small !! << 2265 GB / 2109 Gib
check the harddisk size : hd jumpers settings, bios detection
the following partitions can’t be recovered
