My Hitachi 3.5 HDD (External) has suddenly become inaccessible as I get the Disk G needs formatting pop up - I have tried running the chkdsk in Command prompt but that just took ages with no resolution as most of the files were apparently unreadable- Is the HDD itself totally done in? Or is there a way I can access the disk to get out all the data on it and back it up on another drive?
The disk itself keeps making unhealthy clicking noises which makes me think the heads are buggered, and i'm not really confident in taking the HHD apart to get at the disk itself, in any case my house is really dusty !!
Is there a software that works on corrupted disks? Or a tutorial on how to mend a corrupted disk without swear words?
