Formatting Toshiba external hard drive FAILS
Dear all,
since today my TOSHIBA external hard drive cannot be accessed anymore. It is recognised on Windows and Mac but it shows following message after being plugged in: "The disk you inserted was not readable by this computer.". After pressing the button "Initialise" I tried "First Aid" which failed and "Erase" as well. Also here the operation fails due to the inability of writing to the last block of the device.
FYI: My device is password protected (TOSHIBA software) and worked before on both Mac and Windows. Recently I updated my macbook to OS X El Capitan.
I would like to repair my hard drive but I would be also fine with formatting it. Number one prio is to bring it back to work again.
I am thankful for every idea/response which leads to a possible solution.
Cheers!
MacBook Pro with Retina display, OS X El Capitan (10.11.3), null
