- highlighted is the key to fix it
- terminal will NEVER solve it w/o the tools & knowing how

good luck

No data needed and drive can not longer work after friend played with FW. Do you just want to play around with this and see if you can fix it. No harm done it has already been done before you got this one. If this is a learning experience then it should be fine to do as you wish with this one.

Other wise give up and get a new drive and go forward. There are some who will refurbish drives and maybe you can give it to them for a few bucks and get it back working. Refurbishing drives is a lot cheaper than fixing them and getting data back from them.
