I've struggled with a similar problem before: http://www.tomshardware.co.uk/answers/id-2277602/unable... 1/ Try to 'Safely Remove' the external drive and then reconnect it again, sometimes a http://www.tomshardware.com/answers/id-2296573/hdd-device-error.html simple reset can be the solution. 2/ The error might be because of the drivers on your computer. So I'd advice to try the HDD on another PC/laptop. 2/ Another thing I'd do is check if you have the latest firmware update of your external drive. If it is outdated, it can reflect the performance of your drive. 3/ Can you access the drive through Device and/or Disk Management? If yes, what is the information the tools show about the drive? 4/ Another thing you can try is to check the HDD through Windows' Command Prompt (run it as administrator), type chkdsk x: /r (where x: is the drive letter of your external drive), this will locate bad sectors and recover readable information.

a sudden when I tried to open it all I got was an I/O device error. At first people told me this was a registry problem, but when I tried plugging it into other systems the same error popped up. Strangly, the drive used to read E, but now reads as G. I don't think this is entirely the cause of the problem though, because when I tried plugging this into other systems it read E, but still with the same I/O device error. I have Windows XP on an HP notebook, and I am clueless. I tried disabeling the device, re-enableing the device, uninstalling the device and reinstalling the device. I tried a registry cleaner but it only cleaned 50 problems. I purchased a new cable and that didn't work either, and plugged both cables into all 4 of my USB ports. I bought System Mechanic 7 Professional, only because I live in a small town and Wal-Mart is the only place to buy software. Is there a solution? Does any one know what an I/O device error means? Can I retrieve my information? I'm willing to drive very far and buy very expensive software to do this, so please tell me if there is any software that can help. Also, please tell me if there is any basic thing I can do to help.

It sounds like something corrupted the file system on the external drive. That's why you're getting an Input Output error. What is the exact error message? mtg837 Born Posts: 3 3+ Months Ago G:// is not accessible. The request could not be performed because of an I/O device error. This occurs when I try to open the drive. Don2007 Web Master Posts: 4923Loc: NY 3+ Months Ago That drive is corrupt for one reason or another. If you want to take a long shot, you may be able to mount the drive on a Unix box or try something like the Ultimate Boot CD. Also, you could search for data recovery software, in which I don't have much faith, but who knows? mtg837 Born Posts: 3 3+ Months Ago Well that was the answer I was sort of fearing and expecting as well. Is there any way I can wipe the hard drive to make it useable again? Don2007 Web Master Posts: 4923Loc: NY 3+ Months Ago I just thought of something. I never tried it on a external drive but you might try the manufacturer's diagnostic tools. In most cases, you can d/l them from their site and create a boot disk. Boot the machine. If it sees th
