[QUOTE="Rod, post: 1607089, member: 204485"] I'm concerned about the missing files and obvious corruption that you have said you cannot repair. I assume you have run Disc Utility > Verify Disc and found it unrepairable. That does not mean it is unusable but it does mean you will have to erase and reformat it. Assuming you can get your data off it temporarily you can try doing that. If all is well after verifying the HD again you can resume using it.:) [/QUOTE]
