My External 2TB (WD Elements) HDD is showing as RAW when i check in the properties but when I check in DIsk management it shows it as an NTFS HDD.

Can someone please help and tell me what is wrong with the HDD and why is it showing that... Cause tooo much of data is on the HDD and cannot expect it to fail. Also give me a method of rectifying the problem without formatting it...

So please help me...

TIA

Problem solved mods please close this thread

SOLUTION: I Restarted my comp and the issue got resolved...

I think I just freaked out with the fear of loosing all the data if something went wrong thus created this thread
