I have this old Cd that contains files I need to extract. I’ve used 3 external drives. Two of them don’t recognize the CD at all. The other one is anewer drive. Half the time it can’t recognize the cd, occasionally it will recognize it, I’ll be able to see the contents of the cd but when I try to transfer them, the transfer gets stuck. Also, there’s a god awful noise coming out of the drive as it tries to process the cd. Is there any way I can get these files?


awesome, i just edited my above post. check it out. the fact that the OS can see it sometimes makes me think you’re gonna be just fine.
Thank you so much, I’m definitely going to try this
