John RobertsonWritten 108w agoAs the saying goes Avodeji , with difficulty. The problem you describe is not uncommon. Sometimes it can be fixed and unable to initialize sometimes it can’t. It depends on the details. If you have another copy of the data on the external drive and a Broadband connection then my inclination would be to get rid of the external hard disk and to back up your files in the Cloud – probably Dropbox. There are various other effective Cloud systems.If you have another copy of the data but no Broadband then I’d get a new external drive. A single faulty sector on your present drive can cause the problem you describe. It shouldn’t but it can.If you have important data on the external drive and have no other copy then the solution is harder. There may not be a solution. I hope that is not the case for you. If you have a good local tech shop I’d get their help.If you want to DIY your way to drive health then look at the YouTube video below:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i...This describes the best recovery system and does it well.

Anything greater than that was not recoverable--which wa
