I've had a Buffalo 1TB HDD for about 2 years. It started acting up about a week ago with transfer times getting longer and longer. I decided to buy a new HDD in order to copy the files across before it died, however I was too late.
Usually when I plug it in now it powers up but it won't be detected. Sometimes it is detected but appears as "local disk (I)". Whenever I try to click on it the computer crashes. Also I've tried accessing the "computer management" section for devices but that also crashes when the HDD is detected.
I downloaded a timed trial of data recovery software." When I used it, it showed all my files on the HDD. However the recovery speed is a complete joke, with an estimate of 9 hours to recover a 8mb file. Obviously the files are clearly still on the HDD is there any way I can get them over to my new HDD? Thanks
