[SOLVED] Is it possible to access files from a PS4 HDD on my PC?

[jamireskridge]

I know the way that the PS4 HDD is formatted I can't just plug it in with the sata cables and it'll work just fine. Recently something happened to my PS4 HDD where my only option is to initialize it and lose all my data. I wanted to know if there is anyway to access it in a way without having to fully format it and lose all the data on it, I saw some people mention using Linux but they weren't sure. Is there any options that I can do with this method?

The internal HDD is encrypted and the key is not currently 'broken' so the answer is no.
