Hi,
my Western Digital 120G hard drive went faulty. It has loads of photo
transparency scans on it that I spent a week inputting! Wah!
Anyway I'm resigned to having lost them, but am interested in what happned.
Windows 98 reported that there was going to be an imminent failure of the
drive and I should back it up immediately. I didn't/couldn't and Windows
was right. I managed to transfer some important recorded music first - the
transfer got slower and slower and eventually the disc died completely and
wouldn't transfer anything else. I think the file names are still all there
but it just hunts and hangs when you try and copy anything.
Any info on what happened or suggestions of recovery?
Thanks,
Gareth.
