Q. What is FAT?

Ans. File Allocation Table or FAT is a computer file system architecture now widely used on many computer systems and most memory cards, such as those used with digital cameras. FAT file systems are commonly found on floppy disks, flash memory cards, digital cameras, and many other portable devices because of its relative simplicity. Performance of FAT compares poorly to most other file systems as it uses overly simplistic data structures, making file operations time-consuming, and makes poor use of disk space in situations where many small files are present.


Q. How much time will it take to recover data?

Ans.This is impossible to answer time taken depends on level of damage. Our software try to complete the recovery process as soon as possible depending on the level of damage. No definite time can specified.


Q. Where can we save recovered files?

Ans. The recovered data can be saved to any drive which is accessible by your operating system.

  • To any attached local hard drive having valid partition.
  • To any USB or removable storage media.
  • To any mapped network drive.
  • To a FTP server.

Q. How effectively this software recovers data when there is a corruption or loss of FAT copies?

Ans. FAT Data Recovery software from SysInfoTools has an inbuilt powerful algorithm which reads the FAT copies validates them and eventually creates a virtual FAT copy in the memory and helps to provide allocation information at the time of saving the file. In case there is complete loss of the FAT copies, the software has an inbuilt intelligence to choose the correct linking mode and helps you to recover data by selecting on its own best copy of the FAT or contiguously on its own.
