this is what i'm presented with selecting the Drive, None, then advanced and analyze respectively:

the logfile is at 50mb, by just starting quickscan and aborting directly, is that normal? after running for a day it's well over 300gb. it reads:

("felaktig funktion" means erroneous/bad function).

Command line: TestDisk

TestDisk 7.1-WIP ...

I'm using testdisk7.1WIP 32 now.

In test disk i only see 2 disks, the internal ones, and the external as a drive only, see picture:


This is my diskmanagement view:

running quick scan now as both Intel and None, read errors on both, but still running.

In the quick scan window, the disk shows as: "Drive H: 3000GB / 2794GiB - CHS 1565540352 1 1",
does that help at all?

Last time i connected it was listed black, with wrong size (2gb at that time). Now it's listed as RAW again, at correct size, looking "good" in disk management. But i am unable to access the files, testdisk7.1WIP cannot find the partition, and i get the read errors running the quick scan.

the disk ...

also on a side note, i chose to create a log in testdisk, and it seems to be eating up my whole system drive of 390gb, is this to be expected? i'm currently running the quick scan..

No i wasn't able to access the data. I am running testdisk in windows10 now, i have not yet tried in ubuntu (but i doubt it will make all the difference?). The disk looks normal in testdisk, but the partition is not showing. And as i wrote it didn't detect as "Intel" but as "none".

I did change ...

Thank you for the reply Fiona,

I have not yet tried thru USB-hub, will try in the coming week. Also i will try tonight with testdisk 7.1 (have been using 7.0).

in disk management it has gone thru changes. To begin with it looked more normal, but asked me to format, it had turned RAW. At this point ...

Hello!

Love the software, i was able to copy some of the files of my NTFS-gone-RAW disk. But then something happened, and i lost the partitions, and i am getting read-errors.

External Seagate Backup plus 3TB disk. Turned raw after not safely removing. No weird sounds, so i'm guessing software ...
