Hello,
My 750 GB sumsang (model SUMSANG HN-M750XBB) SMART external hard drive is giving a DISK FAILURE IS IMMINENT message (in ubuntu 12.04). The biggest problem is it won't allow me to backup (by the ordinary copy paste method) my data both in ubuntu or in windows, I thought maybe if I could do that I can try resolve the problem by formating.
In anyone knows of a way I can fix this problem without removing my data, please I will appreciate, if that is IMPOSSIBLE, any ideas I can back up my data safely in order for me to format?
I really need help the soonest possible, thank you.
