Corrupt External Hard Drive, or Does it Just Contain Corrupted Files from Transfer? How to Fix?
Hi,
I just had a 5 month old hard drive crash and burn. The day before it quit, when I realized it was making some loud clicking noises (it's swan song), I swiftly acted to back up my files on my seagate external hard drive.
I have since replaced the hard drive, and re-imported everything from the external drive. Unfortunately, I have come to find that all of my photos over many years are missing in the photo library, as well as many other documents, and that I cannot open photos that are still visible on my desk top, as they have been 'corrupted'. I suspect that all of my other photos and files have been corrupted as well. What in the world is going on, and most importantly how do I fix this crap?! These are years worth of precious memories I cannot afford to lose!!!
Thanks for the help! Much appreciated as I am desperate!
