No, it coudn't find any partition table after 2 passes.

Install smartmontools and try to run smartctl -a /dev/sdb on it. Then

The filesystem on the disk is clearly toast. Mounting it as the wrong
type won't help. Start looking at forensics packages:
magicrescue - recovers files by looking for magic bytes
myrescue - rescue data from damaged harddisks
scrounge-ntfs - Data recovery program for NTFS filesystems
autopsy - g

Why do you mount the dump file from ddrescue as ISO image? Doesn't the
subject say it should actually contain an NTFS filesystem? I am
surprised that this actually works.

Hi all,
A friend of mine gave me his hard disk to try to rescue data from it. It
is a 500GB SATA drive which was in an USB enclosure. His machine
