I've had a WD HDD in an eSATA external housing for about a year and it had worked flawlessly until the other night. I opened "My Computer" to put some files on the external drive, but it didn't show up. I restarted the computer and when the aSATA adapter screen showed up the external drive wasn't listed, then Windows wouldn't boot. So, I turned off the external drive, restarted the computer and windows booted as normal. I then tried to turn the external drive on and Windows froze for a minute, then resumes as normal until I opened the "My Computer" window and it froze for another minute. The external drive didn't show up this time either. Since then I've tried starting the computer several times with the external switched on but I get the same results as before.
Any ideas?
