I bought a western digital 4tb external hard drive and was planning on transferring all of my office's files on it from a my passport 1tb western digital portable hard drive.
First i plugged in the 4tb external hard drive and then it installed the drivers and everything was working fine.
Then i plugged in the 1tb portable hard drive and i only saw one of the two partitions come up. Also when i tried to view files on partition that came up the windows just freezes and then the partition diappears and I unplug and replug it to see the same result repeat.
I plugged the portable hard drive into other computers without the 4tb one plugged in at the same time and still the same thing happens.
I have extremely important data on it for my office and i don't know what to do.
How could a partition just disappear and why cant i view the files in the partition that is showing up.
Please can someone help me ?!??!!
