Hi, my WD 5TB black was doing really well until I plugged it into my familys TV to show them a clip, it ran on their TV, when I came home I plugged it into my computer where it then said its now not accessible, I plugged it into my TV and my Samsung sees the files, my media player also sees all the files, the WD diagnostics says disk is fine and healthy, it also appears to see the data and files, if I use disk manager it can also see files and even run a film etc, but the moment you try to access it from explorer or task bar it again says its not accessible, so to me it looks like the index or something is missing and everything else does not use the index? I looked about and saw what I hoped would fix it, I went into dos and ran chkdsk /F /R after about 15 hours it reported 40000 files etc, said every was fixed and the disk was ok, but surprise, winows ten still cannot see or use the disk, I have reset the system, plug it in and unplugged it, then tried running chkdsk again and still again it reports everything is fine, but still its not working in the PC, it still works everywhere else though, so any idea on whats going on would be appreciated as although I dont care about films much it also houses pictures and documents I need.
I have seen things about installing a new operating system but I am not that good with computers, all together I have around 4TB on this 5TB drive and so its a lot of stuff lost over what seems to be an index issue.
Help me Obi One, your my only hope.
