Hi Guys,
i have searched for hours for a resolution to this issue to no avail.
i have an external 500gb external hard drive, i wanted to connect it to my Xbox one to allow me to install more games, it had other things already on it, so i moved everything onto my laptop (which in itself was a difficult task) to do this i had enabled cache writing (or something like that) and formatted the hard drive. Let it format (quick format) it loaded up so i removed the drive. not realising that i had not switched back to quick remove.
so now my laptop (and my work laptop) will not recognise the drive.
the drive is visible in the device manager, great, when i load up disk manager issues arise, the disk manager will just not load at all, first time i left the laptop 20 mins and still would not load up. as soon as i unplug the dirve the disk manager instantly finishes, this is exactly the same as diskpart chkdsk and all other things i have tried, eventually diskpart showed the storage in drive J with the format RAW and not NTFS and i cant format at all, help please?
