How to recover raw harddisk?
 

Oh well, my harddisk was crashed again 10 minutes ago. I lost my 1st partition containing my 38 gb mp3s. The cause is "Delayed Write Failed", the windows reported that it failed to write to the hdd or something like that. My 1st partition is now displayed as "local disk" in my computer, and whenever I click them, it only displayed 0 byte data. I wonder if there is a method to restore the lost partition? I currently only have 1 harddisk, and it's not possible if the method requires another harddisk to save data. I really would appreciate it if someone could tell me how to restore the lost partition wholly.

Do you have enough space on your other partition to be able to save some of your other data to? Just enough to be able to back them up on CD?

I bought a pioneer DVD RW just an hour ago, but the problem is, I'm using it by using USB2IDE and I currently only having one cable connection. I'm planning to burn my other partition as soon as possible so that I have enough space to restore the files from the RAW one. I must manually copy-pasting the files into my hdd laptop temporarily and burning them one by one.

But I would be very glad if someone could tel me how to restore the partition record (the MBR?) without requiring another hdd. =(

Try Using the latest version of either Partition Magic or Paragon Disk Manager, these are the main references for HDD repairing and Partition Management.
