Clonezilla v. 1.2.3-27
Source and BU disks (2-identical) are WD 1TB.
Incorrect Source Disk selected-completely empty
Cloned over to a newly created Win 7 x64 disk install.
When told about this - (immediately after the clone) system shut down and HDD removed.
Besides being a royal mess . . . What are my options for recovery. I am open to anything at this point.
Than you in advance for any replies - and no you don't need to rub it in - they already feel bad enough.
If you would like to refer to this comment somewhere else in this project, copy and paste the following link:
Oops… Sorry to hear that…
If the data have been written, the chance to recover is very low.
Or if there is nothing on the source (no partitions totally), it's possible you can try to use some tool, like "testdisk" to recover the partition table… Then it's possible the data are still there.
It's recommended to find an expert to do this for you.
Good luck!
Steven.

Thank you.
The disk cloned From had never been used before for anything.
I'll search for a company that does HDD recovery.
Groan - what a mess - good lesson - just not a really expensive one - I hope
