Need to Access DD Images on External Hard Drive

ForensicGA · 2010-09-30T02:20:48Z

Hello,I have an external hard drive with dozens of DD image files of a hard drive that was examined by a forensic's company last year. They told me that the Helix Pro software that I have would have no problem reading the files but that appears to be wrong.Someone at AccessData.com told me that their FTK Imager software would read the files but the Lite version does not appear to do that. I am downloading the 4.4 gig file of the full blown software now. They also told me that the latest version Helix Pro software that I have would not read these files.So, could someone please give me some suggestions on an easy way to get into these files. (Hold on while I utilize the Bang Head Here Poster to Relieve Stress).Thank's!Michael

No need to open your wallet…

Linux use xmount (http//www.pinguin.lu)
Windows use mount_ewf (http//sourceforge.net/projects/libewf)

Both mount dd, e01,…

Good call Mr Kuiper - libewf doesn't mention the mounting of dd files on the Source Forge page, I presume you've used it successfully this way though?

Have you tried afflib? It can handle split dd images.
