@marsh epoch what’s the command you’re supposed to type to repair drives

marsh epoch Jan 2, 2023, 2:29 AM

#

chkdsk?

topaz silo is there some kind of software that can help me with that?

Can you power down the Wii, connect the drive to your PC, then search in windows for cmd and press enter.
in the command prompt, type chkdsk x: but replace x with the letter for your drive.
then screenshot the output.

Can you open disk management and send a screenshot of your drive, should look like this:

topaz silo Jan 2, 2023, 2:35 AM

#

#

the h one was my wii sd card one

marsh epoch Jan 2, 2023, 2:38 AM

#

topaz silo

You can try ejecting the SD and reinserting

#

But the data is likely gonzo

#

Unless you had some data software to recover it

topaz silo Jan 2, 2023, 2:39 AM

#

there are software that can bring my data back

marsh epoch Jan 2, 2023, 2:39 AM

#

maybe but I can't help you there

topaz silo Jan 2, 2023, 2:39 AM

#

like this one im looking at

marsh epoch Jan 2, 2023, 2:39 AM

#

What data was on it

topaz silo Jan 2, 2023, 2:39 AM

#

its showing all my old files

marsh epoch Jan 2, 2023, 2:39 AM

#

wut

topaz silo Jan 2, 2023, 2:39 AM

#

everything ive done with my wii for the past 2 years

marsh epoch Jan 2, 2023, 2:40 AM

#

okay but like save data is not on SD

#

Usually

#

In most cases

#

Maybe GameCube save data

#

Probably a NAND backup

#

did you have any GameCube save data on there?

#

You should be able to easily replace most of the data on there

#

marsh epoch Jan 2, 2023, 2:42 AM

#

topaz silo Jan 2, 2023, 2:42 AM

#

#

sorry

#

yeah but right now i seem to have found a software that can bring back my stuff

topaz silo Jan 2, 2023, 2:43 AM

#

marsh epoch okay but like save data is not on SD

it was all my home brew apps and backup wii/gamecube games

marsh epoch Jan 2, 2023, 2:44 AM

#

you should probably have your games elsewhere as well

#

As a drive can die at any time

topaz silo Jan 2, 2023, 2:44 AM

#

marsh epoch you should probably have your games elsewhere as well

#

marsh epoch Jan 2, 2023, 2:44 AM

#

Like on your computer
