hello everybody
i have an external WD Elements Hard Drive that is 1 TB
suddenly it stops acting like a USB 3 device and every time i connect it to my laptop i get this message that the device may act slowly and i should connect to a USB 3 port !
I used another cable and the problem was solved
then i dont know what happened
suddenly when i try to play a video from it the player just give not responding and the whole computer goes crazy
sometimes i start playing videos and everything is fine and suddenly i get the not responding crazy case
i tried to perform a check disk from windows but it didnt work it just stick at some point and never moves although i left about 8 hours !
last thing i tried is to copy the content to another HD but the copy just stops at the begining and never moves !
i dont know what to do and i have really important stuff in this HD that i want dont want to lose ! so is this a bad sector or what ?
