PC3000 Data Extractor should so that for you.

Unless you have access to professional data recovery equipment, your best bet is probably to just clone the full drive.

As Bankole said, PC-3000 Data Extractor software can definitely do that but it's quite an investment $$$ if you're not starting up a data recovery lab.

I know some data recovery software such as R-Explorer and DataRescue 4/5 can scan just the unused space, but I'm not sure of any cheap/free software for cloning just the unallocated space.

Winhex from X-Ways....If partition is visible.

You're right, I guess I never tried out that "gather free space" option after you open a logical volume on WinHex. I stand corrected.

I probably should spend more time playing around with all the features of WinHex. I mostly just use it when I need to do a lot of searching in a RAW data stream.

You could probably create a reverse map with ddrescue, too.

...further this topic, I usually use DDI for such situations where I need to do this.

Lot of data recovery programs have option scan free space.
