Seagate External HDD - Raw files chkdsk not available fix not working

[learner]

Hello All,

I have tried some guides provided through Youtube videos but I have not been able to find a solution yet.

My hard drive is not readable.


I have tried going through command prompt, doing the chkdsk runs, none of those work. I tried to backup raw data using one online free tool called iBoySoft. But after a 20 min scan it was not able to detect any RAW data on it. Even tried to list disk using cmd prompt and run and convert to ntfs, none of that work. The disk management tool shows this data is in its RAW format.

Please help me and guide me, is there any way in which I can recover my data or is it likely that I have lost it for good..

Thank you for your help and support.

I have tried using other available softwares they dont seem to be detecting anything inside.

3. chkdsk is bad
