Did you try freezing it first? I thought it was a joke, and once on an internal HD, it came back long enough to pull a few files off. I don't get what it does, but it really worked...once. Once it also didn't. Not sure if you can even do that for externals...

All you had to do is hit the reset button on the back where you plug in the uSB.

































Just kidding.

That is one thing I have learned is to have at least 3 backups. Never know what could happen. I have 2 external hd and also have my data backed up to mediamax.com. Living in florida you never know what could happen.

I use AcomData drives and I have redundant back ups on at least (3) drives . . . !

Well, I _was_ going to suggest freezing it.

Because that has worked for me. But I guess it's probably too late now.

My wife backs up our whole Quickbooks database to a USB jumpdrive.
Were a Mac shop and our PC accountant can even use it to update our account.

Oddly enough. Putting it in the freezer for 15-20 minutes sometimes does the trick (no joke)
