I had a portable hard drive (80G) connected to my laptop, and I could see a drive being assigned to the device in My Computer.
Just recently after a improper shutdown when some software failed, the portable drive was gone in My Computer.
Disk management shows nothing of the connected HD. When the portable hd is connected, "the safely remove hardware" still shows that the hard disk is there and can be disconnected, just that I can't seem to locate it and get any files.
Did the portable hard drive fail and lose all data and format, or is there a way I can try to locate it again.
Thanks
