[QUOTE="Noels, post: 696991, member: 49942"] deserter85, No, WD is a great brand, but it is mechanical and they do go belly up from time to time. What you describe is an odd set of circumstances, and I've never heard of one acting the way you describe. I wouldn't discard it just yet, it may be recoverable. Have you tried to repair it using Disk Utility? Go there and select it on the left side, then click on the Verify Disc button. It will analyze the drive and let you know if it needs a repair by showing you a Repair Disc button next. Perhaps it will help... Noel [/QUOTE]
