I/O Hardware error

Waveperson · Oct 22, 2014

I have an internal sata 3tb hard drive, one day it says there is a I/O hardware error and I am unable to open it. I do a factory reset on my computer and now it doesn't even show up in my computer directory! I don't know what to do and I only have 70 GB's on my primary drive and I need more space than that, Thanks

Try changing SATA ports. I had an IO error on my 1TB drive and changing which port the HDD was connected to allowed it to read again.

I'm not a computer builder, I bought mine from a shop and I personally don't know how to change sata ports, would computer repair shops fix this?

If you take it to them they will most likely try that, but there's no guarantee they'll be able to fix this.
