Hi, i've had this WD Black external drive (windows 7) for a while (has data on it), it's was working fine, but since yesterday when i had to disconnect it to move my pc to another room (it didn't get hit or anything) it wont work.
I realized the disk didn't show in "Computer", place from which i usually access it, but it shows under "Device Manager".
It shows in "Disk Partition Manager" (Disk 2), but when i try to initialize it sends the error: "the device is not ready".
The disk shows in DISKPART but, of course, no volume corresponding to it shows there.
I'd appreciate any help on this issue.

I tried "updating driver software" from Device Manager and it tells me it's up to date.
Tried unplugging it and rebooting.
I've seen some similar cases with prompt command instructions but they weren't very clear or some steps were missing instructions.
I'd appreciate any help on this issue.
