I recently purchased a 1 TB flash drive from eBay, but I'm running into some issues. I've copied several video files onto it, but some files are giving me an error when I try to play them, indicating that the format is incorrect or the files are corrupted. I'm worried about losing the data I already have saved. Does anyone know how I can fix this without losing my files? By the way, I'm using Windows 11 on a Lenovo Yoga laptop.

Sounds like you might have a counterfeit drive on your hands. It's not uncommon for sellers on eBay to list drives that don't actually have the advertised space. Make sure to check the actual storage size of the drive to see if it matches what you were promised.
Before you jump to conclusions, make sure you have backups of your important files. Sometimes, issues can arise from how the files were copied. Additionally, checking the BIOS settings or addressing disk configuration might help, but always ensure you have backups first.
