[QUOTE="chscag, post: 1379708, member: 46727"] The terminal command you issued should have unlocked it if the drive is operating normally. Can you copy the data off that drive and on to another? Also as a test, turn off or uninstall your AV software and try to access the drive. You didn't mention which AV software you're using but these three AV packages are known to cause problems: Norton, Kaspersky, and Avast. [/QUOTE]
