tjn8080 Posted May 13, 2011 ID:428822 Share Posted May 13, 2011 In the past 2 days, it seems that my external hard drive is somehow corrupted. When booting my computer, sometimes the files on the drive will appear, and sometimes they won't. When they do appear, they disappear after some time. Any ideas on what I can do to solve this problem?Thank you in advance for your help. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Firefox Posted May 18, 2011 ID:430682 Share Posted May 18, 2011 try plugging that hard drive into a different USB port and see if it continues. Another thing to try is plugging it into a different computer and see if happens on it then it probably the drive going bad. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Annabelle Posted May 18, 2011 ID:430691 Share Posted May 18, 2011 This may be no to little help, but have you checked that the USB plug(?) itself isn't physically damaged? This happened to me a while ago, and it turned out the plug had cracked. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
