Ok, I'm a bit confused here. Do you mean that you install one drive at a
time into a USB enclosure to test?
Yes, on another machine
I tried to recover the partition table for 1 disk.
I worked, but there are plenty of issues.
Disk /dev/sdd: 232.9 GiB, 250059350016 bytes, 488397168 sectors
Units: sectors of 1 * 512 = 512 bytes
Sector size (logical/physical): 512 bytes / 512 bytes
I/O size (minimum/optimal): 512 bytes / 512 bytes
Disklabel type: dos
Disk identifier: 0x00000000
Device Boot Start End Sectors Size Id Type
/dev/sdd1 * 24981075 36258704 11277630 5.4G 7 HPFS/NTFS/exFAT
/dev/sdd2 36258705 46508174 10249470 4.9G 7 HPFS/NTFS/exFAT
/dev/sdd3 60030976 206895103 146864128 70G 8e Linux LVM
/dev/sdd4 206895104 488396799 281501696 134.2G f W95 Ext'd (LBA)
/dev/sdd5 206899200 290785279 83886080 40G 8e Linux LVM
/dev/sdd6 317001728 405065727 88064000 42G 83 Linux
As you can see this table is wrong
But cannot mount /dev/sdd6 for example.
Disk /dev/sdd6 - 45 GB / 41 GiB - CHS 5481 255 63
The harddisk (45 GB / 41 GiB) seems too small! (< 60 GB / 56 GiB)
Check the harddisk size: HD jumpers settings, BIOS detection...
The following partition can't be recovered:
Partition Start End Size in sectors
