Re: exterior HD recovery

Getting that hard disc space back will not be a issue. The problem will be to get the data back. You can try using one of the data recovery softwares available around, but they are not very effective. If you try to create a new partition or resize the 3GB partition, you will not get the other data back.

You can use something like (free) Parted Magic, or (commercial) Partition Magic to resize the existing partition or create a new one to utilize the full 160GB capacity.
