Enough space to save the recovered data; for example, if you expect to recover 40 MB lost data, the Good Device should have at least 40 MB free space (and even more if you plan to take the Host Computer as the Good Device).
I am trying to recover my CD collection from a healthy 120 GB HDD with an bad partition (I have 100 GBs of files on it but it says there is only 3 GB) I used the complete recovery setting in this program. It scanned fast but only gave me results like "File0001.wav" and "File0002.wav" Also, The preview is in text form. What good is that? Other programs that I tried either take days to scan and the songs are half one song and half another within 1 file. This program did recover all the pictures on the drive but free programs do that too.
