At best it let's you get a few gigs of data out, at worst it doesn't work and you're back to where you were (which was nothing). Doesn't really hurt the drive at all.
It really does seem like Nvidia is intentionally trying to confuse their own customers for some reason.
Its moreso for OEM system integrators, who can buy up thousands of these 5060ti's and sell them in systems as 5060Ti's, and the average Joe who buys prebuilts won't know to go looking at the bottom half of the tech sheet to see if its an 8 or 16.
As well as yes, direct scamming consumers, because Jensen needs more leather jackets off the AI craze and couldn't give a rats ass about gamers.
How very Christian of him
So, my first goto with an unresponsive external would be to remove the drive from its enclosure. Typically these are retail internal hard drive that are put in an enclosure with a small circuit board that converts SATA to a USB or firewire and sometimes those die.
If you "shuck" the drive and connect it directly to a computer internally via SATA you can bypass that board.
Next step is put the drive in your freezer for an hour or so then pull it out and connect it immediately. Sometimes this frees them up and makes them work for a short while, enough to copy some of the data off.
Drives not being recognized also sometimes happens if they corrupt one sector that's part of the file system tables and not the actual file system. The drive may be there but not have a file system for windows to read So there's some other tricks you can try using Linux tools to dump the exact bit for bit contents of the drive, and pass them thru an analyzer that will try to pick out what's likely of the file structure.
However, still given the drives age, I'll almost guarantee it's experienced a full mechanical failure and there might not be anything to recover...
Feel like I've seen this one before
They don't even subsidize farmers directly, its commodity priced inputs. It mostly goes to the middleman companies that turn everything into processed preserved shit.
Your house is insanely easy to break into unless it's built with special materials or has steel bars over all openings.
Disregarding the fact that windows break, pretty much every residential door (both interior and exterior) can be busted down by anyone with a decent body weight or with a framing hammer. Hammer thru the door skin, or claw pry on the jamb to force the latch to release, or even just bodyslamming it can be enough to separate the lock block and stiles and the doors will simply fall apart from there.
I can't help but wonder how long it will be before Trump deportation flights start landing in Russia instead of El Salvador.
