Recovery of deleted pictures on a 16GB CF card

May 1, 2010 12:55AM PDT

I have the feeling all the recovery programs can't handle card above a certain size. I just tried a few and none can retrieve the last 5 pictures just deleted. Nothing was written on the card since. Any idea?

GETDATABACK, RECUVA, ZERO ASSUMPTION RECOVERY among a few are worth noting.

If you can't use those, get a quote from http://www.drivesavers.com since they do this media too.
