So I have a Western Digital Passport that was working fine until one day while moving files it was no longer responding and it just sat there for about 20 minutes so I unplugged it. Ever since doing that however my computer has been unable to read it and when I go in to Disc Management it says that I need to initialize it.

So if I do this, will all my files be erased? There are some important files that I need to get off of there. I've tried a few data recovery programs, but none of them can read the HDD either.
