i have just replaced my old laptop with a new one , and i took out its hard disk , connected it to the new laptop to copy my documents and files through a USB enclosure , it was working fine and i could access all the folders normally . then suddenly it disconnected and started reconnecting and disconnecting in an endless loop . and i cant access it .and it doesn't show up in the explorer or disk management . only shows up in the device manager for 10 seconds before it disconnect and reconnect again
i.e i had to take owner ship of the documents folder so i can access it , i don't know if that might have caused the problem but it worked fine for a little after i did that
also i have tried on other computers and the same problem happens
i have tried
-reinstalling the drivers
-disabling the usb selective suspend setting
-connecting the hard disk directly into a desktop through sata
-using testdisk -it cant detect the hard disk-
but nothing works
please help thanks
