TestDisk saw what was really there, unlike everything else save MiniTool. MiniTool always showed it correctly, however, even after booting back into it to look around. Other tools that I tried to view the drive said RAW, too. Instead, the entire 465GB drive was listed as RAW. MiniTool performed its move without incident, and I booted into Win7 expecting to be able to expand the partition. This would allow me to then use Disk Management in Win7 to expand the partition. See: VirtualBox Attach the Virtualbox image. I used it merely to move a small partition on my NTFS data drive (Disk 1) so that the partition was located to the "left" of the free space. Recover filenames/folders from formatted/corrupted partitions Convert the disk image to a Virtualbox image file. I had used a bootable CD of a well-regarded program called MiniTool Partition Wizard 7.1: PhotoRec is a signature based file recovery utility and may be able to recover your data where other methods failed. If a lost file is still missing, give PhotoRec a try. I thought I'd drop a line of thanks here, since I flew very close to the sun with this problem, and based on a thread found at the following link was directed to TestDisk: files from NTFS partition since version 6.11, files and directory from FAT12, FAT16 and FAT32 filesystem, files from ext2 filesystem.
