Hello everyone,
I accidentally tipped over my external hard drive that was sitting wooden floor, it landed pretty hard. I have 2 partitions on the drive, one still works perfectly fine (read and write), but not so much the other. I'm not able to write anything to the partition, but I'm still able to open up files. So I decided to buy a new external to back up everything, but for some reason, some files cannot be copied from the messed up partition.
I tried using two different computers, no luck. I tried putting the hard drive directly into my computer, that didn't solve the problem. I tried using Harddrive Regenerator and Spinrite, but those programs will take months to completely repair, which i'm not even sure if it'll help.
Any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks in advance
