[QUOTE="Rod, post: 1903889, member: 204485"] krs's suggestion is certainly worth a try if you have the resources. Personally I have never found a way to solve this type of problem without reformatting (erasing) the drive. You mentioned a Time Machine backup, is there a possibility that the data you mention would be backed up on that? It's really not a good idea to store unique data on a EHD unless you have a backup of that as well. I think we would all agree that two copies of everything is the way to go.;) [/QUOTE]
