Hey, I have a Seagate External Hard Disk (1TB). I have divided it into 3 partitions, (2 of NTFS, 1 of Ext4). It worked perfectly, until for some reason, the thing wouldn't mount as usual, it would take Windows Explorer at least 10 minutes to show the partitions. This is really getting scary as I have some really important data in there. Although, it mounts on Linux as Read-Only without any issues. It'd be really helpful if I got a solution. Thanks!

EDIT: It shows up in BIOS, Device Manager.
EDIT2: It's not the problem with my Hard drive, it's something wrong with my laptop. (Tried it on another one and it works
