No my job just lets me by laptops on the company card there's nothing weird about it it's basically my computer but the company paid for it.
When I plug it in file explorer shows to disk images one of which one opened basically shows what you would see if you plugged in your Android phone to a computer and the other one is called local disk and has all the info on it but freezes the computer when I try to click it.
I know for sure the drive was never encrypted it's from 2013 and short of taking it out of my tower PC even back then and plugging it in a couple of months ago I haven't done anything with it. It worked fine the first time I plugged it in.
Is that sort of like setting up a virtual machine? All I have at the moment is my work laptop which is a Windows pc. If it is I can Google it and figure it out from there but that seems like a good idea.
The data was definitely there a couple of months ago when I first looked at it and now my uncle who went on a hike with me years ago to the summit of Mount Rose wants the video because while we were there the migration of the monarchs flew through and it was super amazing and now I can't get the damn video!
I'm on a discord from a old British conspiracy podcast that used to put out episodes few years ago and it's just British people and then me and one other guy from America and they've admitted many times that the two of us are the only thing keeping that place alive because he is a right winger and I'm not but we provide an American perspective on shit and all they ever talk about is American politics lol. That makes me feel important!
