What is NTFS?
NTFS is an abbreviation of NT File System. The first two characters – NT means that it is the standard file system for Windows NT, including: Windows 2000, Windows XP, Windows Vista, Windows 7, Windows Server 2003 and Windows Server 2008.

NTFS’s specialized features improve its reliability, such as:
1. Use of a B-tree directory scheme to keep track of file clusters.

2. The information about a file's clusters and other data is stored with each cluster, not just a governing table (as FAT is)

4. An access control list (ACL) that lets a server administrator control who can access specific files

5. Integrated file compression

6. Support for names based on Unicode

7. Support for long file names as well as "8 by 3" names

8. Data security on both removable and fixed disks
How to recover data stored on NTFS partition?
There are two methods provided for recover NTFS partition data:
1. When you find the NTFS partition is inaccessible (the symptom is usually that the PC suggests that the partition is not formatted) or partition is lost when you are partitioning.

For this circumstance, your partition table is damaged by some errors, virus, and intentional active or unknown reasons. The data stored on the hard drive are still located where they used to be. You can recover your NTFS partition table, and then get back your data.

2. When everything is going well, but just loosing data because of the deletion (no matter it is caused by intentional active or unintentional active).

For this circumstance, you can retrieve data from data recovery soft ware or manual data recovery.

Manual data recovery, compare with the data recovery soft ware, its higher price and long time waiting make itself to be the second choice.
