Caddy HDD cannot be mounted after restart
I have two laptops. The previous one (HP G42, 2011) had Windows 8 + Ubuntu 16.04. A fewer driver. Probably two of them
The new one (HP Probook 450 G4) has 240 GB SSD + 1TB of HDD replacing my CD Drive.
Which runs Ubuntu 18.04.
While I was copying my previous files to the new laptop via rsync. my new laptop charge went down to zero. then when I rebooted my laptop, I find that it's not mounting anymore.
sudo e2fsck -f /dev/sdb1
: command says
e2fsck 1.44.1 (24-Mar-2018)
ext2fs_open2: Bad magic number in super-block
e2fsck: Superblock invalid, trying backup blocks...
e2fsck: Bad magic number in super-block while trying to open /dev/sdb1
The superblock could not be read or does not describe a valid ext2/ext3/ext4
filesystem. If the device is valid and it really contains an ext2/ext3/ext4
filesystem (and not swap or ufs or something else), then the superblock
is corrupt, and you might try running e2fsck with an alternate superblock:
e2fsck -b 8193 <device>
or
e2fsck -b 32768 <device>
/dev/sdb1 contains a ntfs file system labelled 'Files'
sudo e2fsck -f /dev/sdb

or
e2fsck -b 32768 <device>
Found a dos partition table in /dev/sdb
Can anyone please help me out? Not an expert on Ubuntu/Linux. Is there any way to recover it w/o formatting the whole drive? Had some backup of my other files in my new Laptop.
Edit: I was not copying OS related files. I was copying my own documents.

Since the filesystem is ntfs, you could try to run a check on Windows. Also, I'd be careful with the -f flag. Forcing an fsck check on an unknown filesystem might cause data corruption.

@mikewhatever, I don't want to install windows on my current laptop. Unless I have an option, I have to do that. Is there any other way available to do so?

Well, there something calledntfsfix
in Ubuntu, but it is not a "Linux version of chkdsk". Readman ntfsfix
, and then, if you don't mind risking data loss, use it. Good luck.
