It seems I keep making one mistake after another when upgrading my desktop.
I foolishly used Acronis True Image to clone a non system drive Samsung 850EVO 500GB to Crucial MX500 1TB.
In the past I simply copied one non system drive to another without any problems but this time when I tried to do it the "proper" way it failed and now all the data on the Samsung drive are not accessible.
The games can be redownloaded from Steam but it also has mods that I have created.
I've tried minitool but it would only scan then they want like $100 for recovering the files.
Is there any other ways (preferably free) to recover files from a drive with corrupted file system?
edit: I posted this on Acronis/crucial forums and they told me to use Samsung Magician Diagnostic tool but it only supports Samsung 860 EVO and newer....
