NTFS is inconsistent. Run chkdsk /f on Windows then reboot it TWICE!
The usage of the /f parameter is very IMPORTANT! No modification was
and will be made to NTFS by this software until it gets repaired.
========================================
Please i have very important information on this disk, is there any possible way to recover it? The HDD is external 2.5 samsung 500 gb NTFS .
