[RESOLVED] Western Digital Drive Problem
I have a 750GB external WD hard drive, model WD7500C032-002 that stopped working this morning.
I kicked off my monthly full backup, and an hour later I came back and saw Ghost returning a CRC error.
- I navigated to it and saw folders & files.
- Then tried using Windows to check the drive for errors. It found none.
- I removed the drive from the USB cable, after ejecting it using Windows.
- I plugged the USB cable back in and it started a soft click of death: "click click" pause "click click" pause, etc. The light on the front of the drive was flashing once every two seconds.
System
Dell XPS 911
Windows 7 Home Premium SP1
Intel Core i7 CPU
12GB RAM
It's my backup drive, so I'm not dead in the water, but I did have a ton of expendable music I ripped from CDs, and some video I'd like to recover from it before disposing of it.
Thanks in advance for your help, as always.
