I forgot to post this about a week ago, my secondary hard drive that stores a majority of my games, and YouTube project files suddenly became inaccessible. When I booted up my computer and check the file explorer, it asks me to format the drive like if it's brand new or something. When I used a data recovery program by EaseUS, it shows over 3.5 TB of files to recover (1.6 TB that I need recovered.) I bought a one month license for them, and I'm waiting for a 2TB hard drive to serve as a backup drive since I don't have one. After the OS got corrupted a couple months ago and now this, I should really invest in something to store my recent data without going through the hardships of recovering and grieving over lost, important data. Since I'm not going to use that hard drive often, I'm going to buy a used one on eBay, but the auction ends in about 3 days from now. Hopefully, I win the auction and get the hard drive because I have plans on resuming PCBS and American Truck Simulator but I can't because the hard drive is messed up. I posted an image on my social media the day it happened thinking the hard drive was dead, but it seems like it isn't. If it is, then there would be any chance to recover any data. I hope that data doesn't go anywhere for the next week till I get it working again! If it gets lost... then RIP.
EDIT 8/5/20: I have recovered a portion of my data using the recovery program, but some of those files couldn't be recovered. Possibly being corrupt when the hard drive screwed up that day. I've just formatted the entire hard drive and backed up necessary data to an external HDD by Seagate. Hopefully, I don't go through another problem like this in the future, especially for a 4TB hard drive of where I store all my games and YouTube project files on.
