Hello,

I currently have a 128GB SD card where I accidentally deleted the footage. I didn’t realize it so I’ve since filled it with about 56GB of videos but I’m hoping to recover anything that hasn’t been overwritten. The file type is .ts and I’ve downloaded onto my Mac, Disk Drill and DMDE. Disk Drill can find 2 photos and says there’s 36000 videos found but they don’t play in the preview and there’s no where near that many videos on the card. DMDE can also find the same 2 photos but no videos. Although, I’m not super savvy so I could be missing how to properly scan things in DMDE.

My question is, should I pay for Disk drill to try and recover the videos? Will they work better once I pay for it? Or should I take it to a professional data recovery shop? And would they likely have better success in recovering my videos?

Thank you.
