Well, I just had this problem today, and i do not want to format it and loose my data on it. Is there a way to fix this. It is a SATA laptop Hard drive. I dont have sata ports so i can’t connect it to my pc besides USB. Any ideas? I know i could fix it by quick formating it then recovery deleted files with some software, but this will take forever, and i have to recover these files onto another hard drive (recovering it on same hdd will corrupt other files as it overitten at least thats what is says on all the program i used before), and i don’t have 180GB of free space, and it will take along time especially with USB. The first thing I did is chkdsk, but it says “The volume does not contain a recognized file system. Please make sure that all required file system drivers are loaded and that the volume is not corrupted.” Any ideas?
