hbreaker102, you could also try to contact support here. Always have a good back up plan as well.

Basically you want:

3 copies of any data you don't want to lose
2 different mediums it's stored on (so 2 different drives in your computer, for example)
1 copy kept offsite, to prevent against disaster.

There are several programs you can use to try and recover data, but personally. This USB stuff isn't the way to go if you want to recover data.
You need to get the drive out the caddy and plug it directly into a Sata on a PC to start to really check what is wrong.

This is why CLOUD is very good - stuff backed up constantly, and accessible on any format you want!
