[QUOTE="Franuck, post: 1756399, member: 391987"] I'm using a 2Tb Seagate Backup Plus drive, which is NTFS formatted and Paragon's "NTFS for Mac OS X" installed. I'm using this mainly for photo and video images and a few weeks ago, the two main folders that I use disappeared. After rebooting my Mac and connecting, ejecting and reconnecting the drive several times I noticed two new folders, (IMG_1234.JPG and IMG_2345.JPG) in the top folder. After rebooting and reconnecting the drive, these disappeared and the missing folders returned. All was well again. Until yesterday. It's happened all over again, finally my 2 original folders returned, but when I opened them (one for still images, the other for video), there was no content! I've done a number of things, like using Disk Utility's First Aid and used Onyx to try and rebuild the directory on the drive, but the data remains inaccessible. I'm hoping there's some way I'll be able to simply restore everything as it was, as the many, many video files are all tagged and mapped to Final Cut Pro libraries and projects. :Oops: I know that the files are on the drive, as there's 1.34 Tb of data on the disc, which consists almost entirely of files contained within the 2 missing folders. Any suggestions on how to fix this would be gratefully received! [/QUOTE]
