[Chris Strellis]

Oh God that sounds really bad :(

"Initializing a logical drive erases the first 1024 sectors on the drive and prevents access to any data previously stored on the drive."

Oh dear....

I assume the drive needs to be successfully mounted before it can be imaged and then the image scan for video content.

Is Linux any better here?

Sorry
