Fellas refer to this thread(https://www.jamiiforums.com/tech-gadgets-and-science-forum/558049-external-hardrive-msaada-wa-haraka-jaman.html) i have been sleeplessly sleeping trying to find the solution for my external hard drive and so far i have reached here It's been tested on a few different machines and always delivers the following results: 1) Does not show autoplay when plugged in 2) Does not show in My Computer 3) When I right click My Computer and Manage, the disk shows as Disk 1, unknown, not initialized but when right clicking the disk, Initialize is there but grayed out. 4) The icon for "Safely remove usb device" shows up in the toolbar. 5) It shows up in device manager 6) When trying to update the driver, it says that the driver is up to date. My questions are as follows: 1) How do I access this drive and get it showing in My Computer 2) If the drive has given in, how do I recover the data as it's very important. 3) Is this hardware or software related? here is the Volume report Disk Disk 1 Type Unknown Status Not Initialized Partition style Not Applicable Capacity 476940 MB Unallocated 476940 MB Reserved Space 0MB Help Me out
