Hello, I recently bought a 500GB Seagate Sata drive and an HDD Enclosure this are the parts:

Enclosure

The problem started when i took it out in an emergency to install windows cause my main drive failed. when i tried to install windows it showed me an error copying files, then i tried vista and hanged up before asking me language, the Linux Ubuntu, istalled well but hanged on loading.
I tooked it out and used another...
when i solved my problem i tried using it again in the enclosure to back up some files, so when it startsw transfering data it slows down so much that the estimate time disappears and freezes... i tried reformating re partitioning etc but it failed, when it started doing this tasks the drive disappears from windows...
i tried partition magic and it hanged, chkdsk /R in xp and hanged at 25%, in vista apparently it formated but i doubt it is fine...
i would return it but the problem is that i bought it in spain and now im in venezuela,
now my question: is there anything i can do to repair/fix it?
thanks for your time
