Help Hard Drive not recognized anymore

by emptytheattic . Updated 19 years, 5 months ago

Maxtor Diamond max 160GB.
Partioned to C: and F: drives

Used Cobian backup software for the first time tobackup from C: to a subdirectory on F

PC was shut down. Would not recogize the C drive on reboot. I removed the drive and put it in an external case.

I brought it to my kids PC and it looks like
the C drive in now RAW and the F still NTFS

I tried to copy the files from the F:
to my kids C: drive with windows folder copy. I got about 10% done before the copy failed and now , wherever I connect the drive (other PC’s and as a slave to the original PC), it doesn’t even get recognized.
The light just blinks on and off.

Is there any hope to recover data?
