I have a 1tb passport. i always dissconnect correctly. it may have had a few bumps but nothing substantial.
now when i connect it i get nothing but a solid blue light on the drive and every now and then a little ‘tick’ noise. it doesnt mount on my mac or pc which it always did previously on both.
i have had it under a year and a am really pissed off.
i have looked around for a fix to no avail. does anyone know how to fix this or to recover everything on it?
It doesn’t take much of a bump to damage one. Just standing on edge and tipping over on the desk can be enough. If the drive doesn’t show in Disk Management recovery software probably won’t work.
