Disclaimer: This is the not the brand of the hard drive that
I used. I did not post the brand name in my blog spot.
Of course I went into a panic. I started watching YouTube
videos to see if anyone else had a similar problem and they DID!
I watched videos for hours… with no answer.
What hurts the most is that I have nothing saved anywhere
else. I met with my computer guy last week and he stated to remove everything
off of my computer hard drive and of course everything was saved on my external
hard drive. I have some pictures on Google Plus backed up from my cell phone.
However, all of the pictures from my DSLR and documents are saved on my
external hard drive.
I’m trying my hardest not to allow this to get me down. Even
though yesterday I felt sick to my stomach…
Also, I have not had much success with USB plugs in the
past. My last one broke (literally) and I decided to use my external hard drive
as my go to instead of a backup.
If anyone knows of any data recovery companies please let me
know. If you have an external hard drive that you have had for years. Please
let me know.
Thanks for Stopping By!

My husband is really good with computers and he has a question for you. The last time the external hard drive was used, do you know that it was disconnected correctly? He said that anything powered by USB like a flash drive or an external drive which is basically a large flash drive, has to be disconnected 'after' the USB is powered down or the drive will fry and become useless.
ReplyDeletePlease, try to see what will happen on other computer. So you will know if the problem is on your computer, or on the external hard drive...I'll ask our system admin and I will write you....
