My files disappeared from my Seagate Barracuda 3TB GoFlex External Hard Drive, as they had done many times before. I typically reboot and the problem is resolved. This time it wasn't. Long story short, since the drive is out of warranty, I thought I'd remove it from the enclosure, since I know Seagate enclosures are known to go bad, and connect it via SATA.
Now Windows is telling me I must initiate the drive before it can be used. I do not want to do this as it will wipe the drive. What are my options to keep my files?
Thanks for any help!
