[QUOTE="chscag, post: 1274608, member: 46727"] I'm afraid not. The "invalid sibling link" error is a fatal one. It usually indicates a hardware error which can not be repaired. About the only way to extract data from a drive like that is to send it off to a drive repair specialist. If it's just a backup drive and you do not need the data from it and the drive is no longer in warranty, destroy it and buy another. If it's still under warranty, contact the manufacturer and request a RMA. [/QUOTE]
