External Hard Drive Dissappears after restart Plz Help
I hope someone could explain why this is happening ??
Basically i lost everything on my external HDD & the only way to get the drive working again was to format it,
That fixed the problem the drive was having (Unknown why data got lost) but if i disconnect the drive & reconnect i get message (the drive is inaccessible & corrupted) Something like that cant remember the wording exactly as its not happening right now, but i know the problem will come back & i will once again lose all my data, as its happened 5 times over 2 week period..
If i restart the PC, after startup its the only drive that's not visible either in (This PC), (Disk Management) or in (Device Manager) which leaves me with no option but to disconnect & reconnect the drive in order for it to be visible & Accessible, Now sometimes it works fine but once it becomes inaccessible it stays that way unless i format it Losing all data once again (HELP PLEASEEEE????) Its so frustrating & it cost me over £100 when i brought it from the store
Q: has anyone come across this kind of problem & how did you resolve it
In case I am asked for???
