    Ok dunno if this is right forums but I'll give it ago.
    I bought a 1TB Seagate external hard drive a couple years ago and the Card rhat plugged into that changed it to a usb output broke and so i bought a new usb hdd External Drive today to access the seagate drive to retrieve my files. However Windows is unable to access the drive and will only let me format the drive. Any idea how i can retrieve my files off it, I dont mind reformatting after I get the files?

    This wont be very technical but, the piece on the card, which the ucb cable plugged into snapped off, not sure how tbh, it was on a desk, The drive was not plugged in at the time.
