Laptop worked just fine without any signs of issues. Turned off at night, got up next morning and on boot I had a list of F keys to press attempting to boot. Removed SSD B+H key, placed in USB dock, desktop machine reads drive and has all folders listed. Clicking on any folder results in "A fatal hardware error has occurred" and will not open the contents of the folder. There are 3 .sys files also below the folder list. When I try to open them, my desktop OS immediately says, "You are attempting to open a .SYS file, find a program". So, this proves I can read data from this drive. What I have done thus far: R-Studio, EaseUS, GetDataBack, AOMEI, and all of them report "Scanning bad cluster..." and retrieve no data. The drive was an NTFS and has suddenly switched to a RAW format preventing me from running CHKDSK. Hooked drive up to MacOS and uBuntu, got a msg on ubuntu that "Windows is in hibernation..." Is there any possible way to retrieve the data on this drive? |

"RAW" probably means that the NTFS metadata are corrupt or unreadable. Are you able to retrieve a SMART report? Try to clone the drive with ddrescue or HDDSuperClone. |

Thank you! The SMART all reads OK on the desktop I have it plugged in as an external drive. TRIM is not enabled either Funny it posts in disk mgmt as “Healthy NTFS” but chkdsk forces it to show its true colors of RAW. Question: Any chance there is a Hibernate flag on this drive that makes it appear differently than it really is? |

I think it's just a case of bad sectors, maybe lots of them. |
