I unplugged my external maxtor 250gb hd using usb2 to reinstall windows 2000 pro. I unplug my external hd all the time though so this shouldn't be the answer to the prob im about to describe..
I plug my baby back in and it shows that its a "mass storage drive" and that junk. I go to "my computer" but my E: drive is missing. I look around and find it to be labelled as "Unallocated"! I dont know how to get it to work, is there something i can do myself or should i invest some money in a data recovery program? My whole life is on that 250gb hd and it was completely full :[ ugh, its so depressing. Any help would be greatly appreciated. thanks!
