[QUOTE="chscag, post: 1486640, member: 46727"] If the drive were formatted to DOS or NTFS, it would be readable. The drive is not able to be read according to the OP. The system wants to initialize it which usually means the drive is either bare or the file table is so scrambled that it can't recognize it. The software I linked him to may be able to read the drive. I'm not even sure that Disk Warrior would work on a drive which is in that condition. [/QUOTE]
