Hi all
I had an external HDD (ide) which for some reason or another stopped working, so I connected it internally to my pc. HDD is seagate 160gb (ST3160212a)
On bootup it says "HDD crash is imininte, backup your data"
HDD is detected in the bios but windows cant detect it
I ran a test on it in the bios (smart) it said there was an error
Is there a way to recovers the files or even get the drive working again?
cheers!
