Hi all and thanks for help in advance,
My problem is that I have an external storage drive that broke but could still be used internally, now when I first was setting up my 2 storage drives I had no problems with it. What has now happened is that windows wont let me access it saying semaphore timeout has expired (or something like that as Im in class and didnt bring the written note of it with me) but currently Im running a full western digital life program to check for errors as I read that might help(first time had errors and failed to repair, second time as of right now its running better, also I've swapped sata cables which did nothing. So not quite sure what to do. Any help would be great as like I said it was fine and I even had a system backup on it and then it messed up while I was doing other things I suppose.

OCZ vertex 3 120gb
WD Caviar Green 1.5TB(the one with the problem)
WD uhh something 500Gb
