Transmission

Sorry for the delayed follow-up... been offline for a bit. Still no luck finding/recovering the lost files/folders. Someone elsewhere suggested that plugging the drive into any late-model Windows machine would probably prompt an automatic error recovery process, so I put the drive on a Win10 laptop ...

Still working on this... will report back when there's news. Thanks.
