Few days ago my ext hdd was unstable. Always connecting,
disconnecting itself from my comp, finally I reinstalled the
driver, and it became more stable and I could finally transfer
files from my last shoot. But it's still connecting and
disconnecting itself frequently.
Then I defrag-ed and error checked my drive. Midway thru error
checking, my comp stopped responding, and I switched off my drive's
power (ARGH!!!).
Stupid action... now my drive can't be read!!! Can't be opened,
accessed or anything. Even the name in My Computer was reverted
back to "Local Disk" rather than the given name.
Someone suggested I use Partition Magic and TestDisk. TestDisk
worked, I can finally access my disk, but there are no files
inside. The used volume is still the same. Used partition magic
chkdisk. Msges say what recovering orphaned file (name) to
(number). What happened?!!!
