BeemerBiker, the vendor sent yet another device (EFM2-NS) iDSONIX M.2 NVME/SATA SSD ENCLOSURE.  Windows FINALLY detected this one as an USB and then a small window popped up with this error.

The USB drive is then listed in Windows File Explorer but when I click on it, this is the error message that pops up:

Perhaps I need to return the iDSONIX (EFM2-NS) M.2 NVME/SATA SSD ENCLOSURE and try a different brand or model that possibly includes a regular power connection in addition to the USB connection.  Do you think that might possibly be the best option since these do require a lot of power?

Sharing my specific system info in case that might help as it's changed from the original.  I've installed a 1TB SSD; I've upgraded the RAM:16 GB; the OS is still Windows 10 Home 64-bit, version 22H2.

The drive is bad, you knew that already

Try the windows repair tool on it

Like I've already shared, Windows will not load for me to try anything within Windows.  I am trying again to contact the vendor on Amazon.

If windows cannot repair the drive then try File Scavenger

https://www.quetek.com/download.htm

It is a free download and can show what files it can recover from the drive.  if it cannot recover any then do not buy the license.

 

The app cannot be installed on any drive that you want to recover files from.

I keep it on a separate computer and attach the problem drive using USB3

It can recover data from a formatted drive.  Cannot recover from a "wiped" drive.

 

Select * or whatever files you are looking for such as *.docx in the "look for"

Set your USB drive in the "Look in".  You may need to do a long search if FAT is corrupted

 

The following image shows File Scavenger's list of file it can recover

I found another device on Amazon that looks like it should work.  It's more expensive but likely because it includes a power adapter.  Your thoughts on this device, BeemerBiker. . . or anyone else?

Just a quick reply to say that the 4th device, I described in my previous message, worked thankfully!   Thank you again for your help!
