Comment
When you get the error message: "Media is not formatted would you like to format now?" you need data recovery software such as Digital Picture Recovery. It is difficult to test this kind of software in normal circumstances, but photographers who have experienced crashes report that Digital Picture Recovery did actually recover most of their files.
Digital Picture Recovery may need several hours to work its way through a really massive drive, but it gets there in the end, recovering data that have not been overwritten or completely wiped.
This vendor also sells Recover It All in editions for Windows, Mac and Solaris, to recover damaged, deleted, or corrupted volumes -- even from disks that have been initialized.
