I dismantled my Seagate Central drive and threw the drive into my PC to mine. Initially, the partition with all of my data did not have a drive letter and would not take one...all is lost? I grabbed EaseUS and recovered the files, but they were in a generic name format and I wasn't up for naming 1 terbyte of files by hand. I've been running the seagate recovery tool, and I am getting visibility to everything on the drive in my file manager. It seems like I cant get down into the details, but folder structures are back as are many files.
Did the Seagate software do this?
I also installed a toolkit to allow me to read the Seagate files natively in my file manager, but it didn't seem to do anything. Did my machine just need time to scan an index the drive?
Regardless, I'm happy to have the files back. Next stop is a WD 8G NAS with RAID 1
