I'm dealing with a serious issue here. My 20TB single partition drive (Model ST20000NM004E) suddenly became "unallocated" in Disk Management after I swapped some drives. I think a power issue might have caused this. The most critical thing I need to recover is a 14TB VeraCrypt container that was on the drive. Does anyone have suggestions for how I can go about retrieving this file?

Make sure to check the SMART data for any potential issues with your drive. That could give you a good indication of its health before you attempt any recovery.
Any decent recovery program like Recover My Files should do the trick for you. Just remember, don't mess around with the drive until you attempt recovery to avoid further issues!
I've had good luck using Macrium Reflect for situations like this. Even if Windows was showing it as unallocated, it helped me analyze the drive structure and back up my files. Give it a try!
You might want to check out UFS Explorer. It's capable of extracting from VeraCrypt and can likely see your partition unless there's serious damage. Also, if your drive was under the Seagate Rescue plan, that could give you some additional recovery options.
