[QUOTE="chscag, post: 1153754, member: 46727"] Disk Utility is an application on your Mac that is similar to Disk Manager from Windows. Run Disk Utility from Applications, Utilities. See if it can repair the drive. Use the verify and repair option. By drive corruption I mean that the data is corrupt or the MFT (master file table) is corrupt. If the MFT or data is corrupt, chkdsk /f may be able to fix it so give it a try first. If it doesn't work and the data is not critical, you can always reformat the drive to get it back up and working. (but with no data) [/QUOTE]
