I have SONY hard drive.. I dropped it a while ago it worked fine immediately after the drop but then it stopped working.. it still has the light on when connected but it doesn't flash or vibrate from inside and when I connect it to my laptop it doesn't recognize it at all. I had windows 8.1 as operating system but when I looked for a solution someone said the Linux fedora could recognize the external hard drive and fix it.. so I downloaded the live image and it did recognize the hard but when I tried to access it it said " you don't have permission to access the contents of this folder" so I installed fedora to have root authority but after completing the install and rebooting the laptop it won't recognize the hard drive any more..
what does that mean?!! can my drive be fixed or should I just say goodbye although it was still new not a month old when it dropped..
please HELP
