Hi Geekstogo,

 

I have an old SanDisk Ultra USB 3.0 128 gb drive that contains all my wedding videos. It's the original drive that our videographer gave us. When I plug it in and try to access the files I get a pop up window stating that the disk needs to be formatted before using. If I right click it I get a different notification stating that it is not accessible. I've attached a screen shot of the two windows. Is there anyway I can recover the contents?

 

Any help would be greatly appreciated. My wife and I would be so relieved if there was a way to save and copy over all the files.

 

Thanks.
