However this solely occurs a few of the time. Often what occurs is the topmost folders will seem and sure, the information which are topmost, after which while you click on on the folders nothing seems within them regardless that there are subfolders inside them. I’ve tried repairing the disk with disk utility however I bought the next error message: First Assist couldn’t unmount the disk. Additionally when I attempt to view the information and open them with terminal, that additionally doesn’t work.
Additionally, if I can not clear up this downside myself, do you suggest sending my onerous drive to an organization that focuses on knowledge restoration?

The backup disk although is the extra essential one. Additionally, this was the primary time this has occurred however now after I join that disk to my laptop computer it additionally messes with the file system of my laptop computer.
