EXFAT > RAW

#1 Post by JaesonDaniel »

Hello,

I had a power surge or something but I lost two drives that now come up as RAW. They were originally ExFat. One is 2TB and the other is 6TB.

I'm not quite following to the step by step becuase of the ExFat partition.

Can anyone break it down?

I opened TestDisk and analyzed the drive. But how do I write it to make it recoverable as an ExFat?

Run "cmd" (right click run as administrator) and "chkdsk /f d:" (replace d: by the correct drive letter).
What is the result ?
