A closer look at Disk Drill PRO (Part -1)

Guys since i want to explain this tool in detail so cant post everything in one tutorial so wait for the second(last) part.. till than you can try this one ….
Disk Drill PRO (v1.2.97) is a Mac data recovery software that recovers data from HFS/HFS+, FAT, NTFS and other file systems. Disk Drill locates and recovers deleted files from any mountable media – main drives, external hard disks, memory cards, iPods Classic, etc. It can recover photos, music, documents, applications and many other known formats.
Installing Disk Drill takes just a few moments. You are asked to choose some options right away:







As you can see at the bottom of the screen, you’ll also be asked your admin password so that the software can access your disks and make changes.
I would recommend going through the offered tutorial – it’s very short, the tips are helpful and the information is presented in a simple and easy-to-understand way:

First, let’s see how you can protect your files from being lost through accidental deletion in the future. Press the “Protect” button and you will be faced with this screen (well, after you have pressed the Advanced option) :
 


The software immediately detects all mounted drives – in this case, my MacBook’s hard drive and the disk image for DiskDrill that I have not unmounted after the installation.
Clicking on the hard drive reveals its partitions, and I chose to protect the main one. The Recovery Vault protection is easily switched on and off by pressing either the small top right buttons or the ones in the middle of the screen. Advanced features allow you to choose particular folders you want monitored for deleted items.
My hard disk was instantly protected after I installed the software because I chose so during the installation. The green dot under the disk shows me that it doesn’t have any hardware issues. If it turns red, it is time to consider a backup. A click on the dot shows me the details of the disk:


 


To protect an external disk or any other removable media, simply plug it in and turn on the Recovery Vault. If it’s a flash drive or a removable disk you use to transport files between computers, the Recovery Vault will automatically protect it if Disk Drill is installed on them.


WAIT FOR THE SECOND PART OF THIS TOOL….
