Right here we go.......My my ext HDD a Western Digital 500 gb ( probably about 7- 8 years old)
Has works perfectly well until today, not the laptop is telling me that it needs reformatting.
Have tried different cables, different laptop,
Diskmgmt and that telling me its incorrectly partitioned.
Obviously I dont want to reformat it as it has years of photos on..
Any ideas on how to give it the kiss of life?
Personally I think its f@*ked........very unhappy.
Tried Recuva but it wont recognise the device.
