Taking days to recover file

Hi all

Somehow my 2TB WD Passport Drive turned from NTFS to RAW.

I know it is stupid not to back up the file regularly (because I treat this external drive as backup and never expect it would fail in 1.5 year despite I rarely use it)

All I want is to save the photo folder (estimate 5GB). However, the Recuva recovery stucks at

F:/Photo/xxxx

Current progress: 0%, 51 file(s) recovered

Estimated time left: 3 days

it seems to me recuva cannot save some file because there are bad sectors and the software is stuck there.

I am willing to skip those damaged file but seems recuva does not offer such option. What should I do?

Thanks in advance.
