T_P_ 0 Report post Posted March 20 Hey Guys, Just wondering if you guys have ever seen this issue before. Toshiba 2TB HDD stopped working. I have attached all the error images so it makes it easier to understand.... Things I have tried; 1- Check Disk (Failed) 2- Connected to 3 different machines, none of them will open the disk 3- Found this tool online Minitool Partition Wizard, and from there I can browse all of my content (Thanks God) but do not know exactly how to use it. Didnt do much with it at this point. Some images attached, I would appreciate knowledge sharing. Thanks Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

T_P_ 0 Report post Posted March 20 I have not tried that yet, but certainly will. Found this tool called TestDisk not sure if you ever heard of it, and I was able to find the files I need, but it is taking forever to copy to a backup. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It finds the disk, I select the scan and nothing happens. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

T_P_ 0 Report post Posted March 20 Give it a few minutes/hours to run? Its not even starting the scan.....Do you know any other tool that can browse data in a RAW drive and allow me to copy them to a new location? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
continuum 17 Report post Posted March 21 As I said earlier, try TestDisk. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

continuum 17 Report post Posted March 30 TestDisk doesn't work miracles-- if the drive has physical damage, unfortunately, there's not much it can do Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
