➡️ Drive not formatted error: CHKDSK is Not Available for RAW Drives
Dealing with RAW drives
A drive appearing as RAW means Windows thinks the drive is unformatted and has no data. If that’s accurate, format the drive. If that’s not accurate, then try different connections or machines to try to get it to work. In the worst case — hardware failure — you could be looking at a data recovery service or data loss.
