I cant see the files inharddisk

[Battal Gazi]

Hello,

I was using a dvr 320 gb harddisk in it. I must take the video in that harddisk from that hard drive to my computer. So i took hard disk and connected to my computer. It can be seen in ide drives and in computer management - drives.

It seems
289 gb not formatted. So i have to make a new path or partition.

But as i said, i need to reach that video so i cant format that drive. What i can do in that case? Please help me..

If you took the hard drive from a DVR, there's a chance it's formatted in some way that Windows doesn't know (possibly it's a special format that the DVR manufacturer uses).

Alternatively it's encrypted to prevent you doing exactly that, which I find more likely (it's to prevent copyright infringement).

So, i should use usb part on the dvr to connect to computer? Only way seems like that?

If it has that ability, then yes that would be your main option.

But if i do that, will i be able to see clearly as a for example a removable disk in my computer like how a mobile seemsthere? Do i need any programs to access into it?

Not if it's not designed to do that, no.
