I recently upgraded to a from an EVGAZ390 and i5-9600k to an MSI Z490 and i9 10850K. I have 3 storage units, a 1TB Seagate ST1000DM003, a 1TB Crucial MX500, and another small ssd. I did the following:
Is this normal? Any suggestions on how to reverse a recovery? I didn't initiate anything on this drive so I'm super confused about how this happened.
Any help is appreciated.
- Installed new CPU and motherboard in case
- Attached Crucial SSD (same SSD I booted from with my old motherboard)
- Attached HDD and small SSD
- Booted computer – had to changed to UEFI mode to get it to recognize my Crucial SSD
- I booted everything up and it worked fine, but my 1TB Seagate seemed to have recovered itself to 2019 without me doing anything. The size is about 200gb less and a ton of files that I had years ago suddenly appeared, while none of my new data is on there. It's really important data that I need and I have no idea why it reverted back 2+ years or how to undo it.
