I have just formated my HP laptop (having 500 GB Hard Disk Internal) and install Ubuntu 14.04 LTS OS. while get back up for lost files, I install testdisk and run sudo photorec. All process is going fine, but I want to save the resotred documents, photos , videos etc in my 1 TB External Seagate HDD (SATA) . But there is no option for my External HDD in photorec window. How can I do so.

The USB drive probably was mounted in /media/bapi/<name_of_drive
. We can browse to the root directory (/
) with selecting ..
twice then select media
, bapi
, <name>
.
If it is not present there try mounting from Nautilus to be able to write on that drive.

@BapiSaha: also see link I gave in the edit. Can you "see" your external drive from Nautilus (aka "Files")?– TakkatJul 6, 2015 at 16:06
sudo apt-get install hplip-gui
