H All, I have read many threads and hope that someone maybe able to help me.
My external HDD has simply stopped reading, shows in my computer but says it needs formatting.
I have had my external HDD for a couple of years. It has done this once before and I managed to fix the issue via a cmd prompt which I can't remember. Have tried re-assigning the letter etc and that hasn't made any difference.
I have read that maybe its corrupt but in the disk management it states healthy.
In the file system it states RAW and the other 2 HDD nfts. Does this mean the HDD is corrupt? I have so many important items on my HDD.
Sorry to ramble,
My pc is
WINDOWS 7 64bit
8gb ram
Sata 2 seagate 500gb system hdd
Thanks in advance for any help offered
