I know this sounds like im a retard, but it seriously happened. I got a new 500GB HDD, and copied about 50GBs on it two days ago. Today i copied another ~220GBs on there, shut down the computer, and plugged the HDD into my laptop. Any file organizing i did after copying the 220GBs is gone, most (not all for some reason) and most of the 220GBs of data is gone as well.
When plugging it back into my desktop, i can't see those files either, so they just seem to have disappeared.
But the really weird thing is, that the computer still tells me that 283GBs of the HDD are used up, eventhough the files that are still shown are only roughly 65GBs in size. I cant find those "ghost" 200GBs anywhere on the hardrive, and searching for vanished files doesnt yield a result either.
So my question, what is going on and can I restore those files somehow (cause i allready deleted them from my PC...)
