Yeah, I'm not confident enough to give advice while still being able to recover data. Don't actually know if there's a way to do it at this point.

Just found a scan tool that could at least let you know if the data is recoverable, though the free version only allows you to recover a tiny bit of data. Would be a proof of concept at least. It says it's compatible with RAW format, so maybe worth a shot. Maybe there's a free software version that lets one do full recovery?

I have no experience with the software, but at the point you're at, I don't see how anything short of actually formatting would do more harm.

This only works assuming the system did a quick format (from NTFS to RAW) versus a full format, which I suspect is the case. A full format would take considerably longer, minutes instead of seconds

trying that out now, oddly something i just noticed is that my 1tb HDD is now a copy of my 250gb SSD....not even sure how that happened

hoping to move my files to my external-hdd and just format my 1tb hdd

Set it as a simple volume rather than dynamic.

 

Use the steps I gave you. Let me know how either of these go as I'll be back in the morning.

hows this looking?

That looks good. You can change the drive letter if you wish.

its just unforunate that all my data on that drive was lost, trying some data recovery software but no luck. least it was just some music and games but still.
