Hi,

While trying to repair external hard disk with HDD Regenerator, it says "connect external hard drive as internal". How to do it without removing the case ? I do not want to remove the case as warranty is still there. I want to retrieve the data myself as the cost of data retrieval is equal to the cost of a new external HDD.

You are almost certainly totally wasting your time.

Trying to "recover" data with hdd regenerator is like trying to cure a headache with a hammer, it will only make it worse.

So you say, no hammer in the first aid kit in Prague?

Don't run hdd regenerator, do a clone of the drive with DD-Rescue or similar, then retrive your files from the clone...is the external drive a WD?

If you swing that hammer hard enough the headache will go away.

Just like if you run HDD Regenerator long enough your need to pay for data recovery will go away. Because in both cases death will result.
