HDD full of slc files

[nenadilievski72]

i found old hdd, it is 320gb and it has two folders: dvrvol and eventlogs. in the dvrvol folder there are 277 files of 1gb with .slc file extension. any ideas what it might be? what is slc at all?

A folder named dvrvol and .slc files leads one to think these are from a satellite TV DVR.

If they are actually something from a DVR, and you don't have the actual DVR, and if VLC doesn't work...you're pretty much out of luck.
Likely encrypted, via firmware in the original DVR.

And almost certainly it was just random stuff from just before that DVR died. Almost certainly nothing special.
Those things 'record' constantly...24/7.

Right.
And don't expect "long life" from that drive. Years old, and was running 24/7 for years before that.
