My external drive has turned "raw" and been corrupted.

Testdisk cabt read the boot sector of backup boot sector, both are bad.

But when I rebuild BS, I can see my files listed.

BUt, when I try to write... I get this error:

Write error: Cant write new FAT boot sector

IS there a way round this error?

Or, I guess it looks like if my files are listed I could potentially copy them across to another drive from the extenral drive to the computer drive?

Thanks for any help.

If writing to your external disk is not possible (defective SSD inside?!) try to copy all files from your external disk to another location.
