[QUOTE="skaheadpunk, post: 710453, member: 45677"] Well, if the drive dies you just need a new hard drive, not a new computer, but you'd lose your data. It showing up in Disk Utility is a good sign though. Have you tried selecting it and clicking the Verify Disk and Repair Disk buttons on the bottom-ish right of the disk utility screen? Another thought - is the 'Mount' button at the top greyed out? Sorry if this is all useless, just trying to remember what I did when this one happened to me. [/QUOTE]
