Hello.
I have a small problem, i have a dying 1tb HDD drive, entire FS broke down rendering my NAS unusable(it doesn't even boot, says the drive is damaged). So i connected the drive to my PC using sata 3.
I used r-linux byte-byte copy and also normal copy but that would literally take like 120 days was sooo slow. So i canceled it and opted for a scan. The scan took 4 days and it found my files. But now the problem is i can recover all of it BUT the speed of which the program operates is 3GB per 6 hours. You can imagine how long it will take if i would like to copy all my data. Is there any way to make it faster? Or should i just take it to professional firm knowing my files are still there
