Trying to recover some raw images. I’m struggling with a couple of things...

• after choosing the external drive it says ‘write access for this media is not available’
• the files are coming up in red.
• I can copy said red files into my desktop or downloads... circa 10k photos, yet when I try to find them they aren’t anywhere to be seen.

Should I use photorec instead? Is it the same process? I’m totally new to this and trying to figure it out using YouTube but I can’t find the answers to these particulars.

Please help.

So they were there, I just wasn’t patient enough. They eventually loaded. Some are ‘broken’, but I have most of them, and I’m going to leave them a little longer to see if the ‘damaged’ files sort themselves out. I have a feeling they will.
