I want to recover my Files from a 1TB Hard Disk with HFS+ File System. I can't recover my files using mac version commercial tools and I can't see the lost files using macOS.

I have a macBook Air with only 2 USB ports.

  1. The External USB Hard Drive. (It will be the source of files to be recovered)
  2. The USB with Ubuntu 17 (Live) I see the Files!!!

And the Drive/Hard Disk Destiny for recovered files ?

NOTE: My MacBook's HD haven't space. I have old 32 bits (x86) Machine with Windows 7 (without space) but Enough USB ports.

What is the recommended alternative to establish a destiny to copy my recovered files?

dd command work in LAN network environment?

Install Ubuntu into the target drive

One alternative is to install Ubuntu into the target drive, the Drive/Hard Disk Destiny for recovered files.

  • You can install Ubuntu like into an internal drive (but to this external drive, connected to one of the two USB ports).

  • You can also create a persistent live Ubuntu in this this external drive, connected to one of the two USB ports.

Then you can boot Ubuntu from the target drive and copy from the source drive.

The following links describe how this can be done,

Backup

Installing an operating system is risky. Even if you think, that the files on the target drive will survive, they may disappear. So you should backup everything that you cannot afford to lose from the target drive before you start installing.
