Recommendations to Recover a Damaged External HD

buckeyebri said:
I accidentally dropped my WD external HD the other day and I can’t get it to connect anymore.

It still spins and the light flashes. It does make a funny beeping noise for a bit but quiets down. Windows will tell me it is setup and I can eject it ok. It just doesn’t show up as a recognizable drive anymore.

I don’t want to send it anywhere with some of the data that is on there. Suggestions?

they're worth attempting:

Check the connections: Make sure the USB cable connecting the external hard drive to your computer is securely plugged in on both ends. Try using a different USB port or cable to rule out any connection issues.

Test on a different computer: Connect the external hard drive to another computer to see if it's recognized there. This will help determine if the issue lies with your computer or the hard drive itself.

Update drivers: Ensure that your computer's drivers are up to date, especially the USB drivers. Outdated or incompatible drivers could prevent proper recognition of the external hard drive.

Device Manager: Open the Device Manager on your computer (you can search for it in the Windows search bar) and check if the external hard drive is listed under "Disk Drives" or "Universal Serial Bus controllers." If you see any yellow exclamation marks or error messages, right-click on the device and select "Update Driver" or "Uninstall." Then restart your computer and check if the drive is recognized.

Data recovery software: If the drive is still not recognized, you can try using data recovery software designed for situations like this. Some popular options include Recuva, EaseUS Data Recovery Wizard, or TestDisk. These tools can help scan the drive for recoverable files even if it's not recognized as a drive in Windows.

Professional data recovery service: If all else fails, and the data on the drive is crucial and irreplaceable, you may need to consider sending it to a professional data recovery service. They have specialized tools and expertise to recover data from damaged drives. Ensure you choose a reputable and trusted data recovery service to increase the chances of successful recovery.

Google 10 of the best quotes from Buckeye legend Woody Hayes - 247Sports

Bestbuck36
Fuck 247. Pretty sure they can't tell me a damn thing about Woody!

He made me cry again tonight from his Farewell Speech. So many things that he said cut me to the core, but I started bawling tonight because I watched it again and once again it hit home.

"So many kids were smarter than me, bigger than me or faster than me. But, I learned right away they couldn't out work me!"

My high school coach said something similar about me and it struck a nerve. Mea Culps

When Woody broke down so did I.

2023 Women’s NCAA Tournament

calibuck
Forgot the '3 seconds in the paint' rule. More egregious in the men's games (Edey camped out mostly), but the women didn't move a lot either. The tall gal from LSU didn't even make an effort to vacate, and no one pestered the ref. If you're not gonna call 'em, take them out of the rule book. But yeah, hooking a defensive player on a drive happened time and again for the women. PS, that little blond shooter (from Louisville?) portaled onto the LSU team. Going to be a big obstacle for tOSU ladies to overcome in the NCAA Finals next year.
