accidentally cleared partition table of my external hdd

May 12th, 2023

hi,
i was using testdisk and i accidentally cleared my partition table.now i am trying to get it back but it always says “write is unavailable because partition table type “none” has been selected.
i dont know what to do now,i just want that my pc detects that damn thing again under “my computer”.i dont want to save any data as i have just deleted all of them today,so thats not a problem.
is there any hope or did i kill it?

if this is a 2ndary drive boot to windows and use windows disk mgt to partition the drive
put
diskmgmt.msc
into a run or search box
Answer #3

and thats not what i need,i just need my external hdd to be partitioned again
edit: i dont know if it is a 2ndary drive,its a usb external hdd,no clue if thats secondary or whatever
Answer #4

thanks
Answer #5
no clue if thats secondary
not your OS drive
so if you can boot to windows try what I suggested, if thee drive gets connected and shows in disk mgt just rt click it and select create partition
Answer #6
Use TestDisk with the deep search option. It might be able to bring them back.
Answer #7
I tried using TestDisk before, it is quite helpful
