I have a 1TB external WD hard drive that is partitioned into drive G and drive H.
Drive H is where my data is stored.
Drive H was working fine one day but the next day I went to access it and it tells me that it is not accessable and wants me to format it. I of course said no.
It gives me the error message: DATA ERROR (CYCLIC REDUNDANCY ERROR)
I can still access drive G on this physical piece of hardware so I know it is not the drive itself.
In disk management it says that drive H is now RAW where it used to be NTFS.
Someone suggested I use Recuva.
I tried but Recuva also says DATA ERROR (CYCLIC REDUNDANCY ERROR)
What can I do to get my data off of this partition H?
