DS HDD IDE games files directory Issue - Ro Magnus Larsson - Вчера 10:16
GAMES Folder got inutilized, I can not access to the folder
Maybe I changed something wrong in new DS folder or something happened from DS /RD booting?, anyone suffered the same?
1-As the uploaded image shows GAMES folder (JUEGOS) and some files suffered a change and got inutilized,
2-also it was created those "CACHE" files without extension (they are around 1Gb each one)
3rd- The HDD name SEGA_HDD3 was changed to D.
I did not do anything more to the HDD
Whta can I try to do without loose all that 180Gb precius data?

Looks like broken fs and/or bad sectors. This should not happen under any settings.
You didn't say what you did before this happened. What software you used and what versions.

What I only did is to update some DS/RD v3.3 folder files from HDD (connected to PC via USB addapter), can some files placed wrongly provoke this ? Also I erased a "cache" file from a DS folder. Nothing more I did to the HDDs
Very strange! It happened to other HDD too! where NeoGeo/NeoGeo CD games folder totally dissapeared and it was created CACHE '.' unused files. I tried to defragment the HDD (Deffragler&Victoria software) the CACHE '.' files changed but games never appeared again.

It is very bad if you connect the HDD via a USB adapter, like a flash drive.
