[QUOTE="cwa107, post: 1427357, member: 24098"] You'll need more sophisticated tools than what are built into the OS. One of the perennial favorites is [URL="http://www.alsoft.com/diskwarrior/"]DiskWarrior[/URL], but [URL="http://www.prosofteng.com/products/drive_genius.php/"]DriveGenius[/URL] may be helpful as well. In either case, they're not cheap - and there's no guarantees that you'll be able to recover anything. However, I suspect that just having an unexpected dismount didn't do any permanent damage. It's just a matter of getting the filesystem straight at this point, which DiskWarrior should be able to do. [/QUOTE]
