let's start with how this all started. i run a OCZ SSD as my OS drive and 3TB hdd for data.
now tonight i was trying to copy some files from my phone to the SSD, but then the computer got frozen completely so i have to hard shutdown. after that the windows won't boot anymore, it will stuck on 'Starting Windows' screen forever, and if i run safe mode it will stuck when loading files. however, if i press DEL and goes into setup, i can see the OCZ SSD is still there. it just will not boot. and when i try to Boot from windows install CD it will be stuck as long as the SSD is connected.
finally i had to take the SSD out and installed windows on a spare 80GB HDD that's laying around, i cannot install windows on the 3TB hdd as it says some kind of format error. so now my windows is up and running and i plug the OCZ SSD onto my computer's SATA hot-swap slot. after i plug it in, my computer can detect the OCZ Octane drive and indicate there is 1 System reservered drive and 1 'Local Disk' which is all my important data at... problem is i just simply cannot access the drive, read anything from it. but the PC/Bios can definately detect the drive. what could be wrong, is that SSD still useable? is there any data recovery software that can get into the drive ? ? please see pic
