I already tried changing the drive letter from F to G.

I am currently trying this software called EaseUS Data Recovery.

RAW hard drive often could be caused by many reasons, such as computer operating system problems, virus attack problems and even failed drive problems, etc.

Therefore, in order to get back your needed data, you may try data recovery software and then format this drive to see whether it could work again.

(There is plenty of data recovery software online. You should select a proper one after doing much researching over the internet. )

In all, after experiencing this trouble, you should learn to back up all your important data at least on two hard drives or locations.
