I would suspect you need a specialist application to sort this, thing is, when you plug in a disk drive, the system uses information from the first sector to identify the drive and its size. You get a similar problem when you zero out an entire hard disk, and there the solution is to manually enter into the bios the hard drive.
What I suspect has happened in your case, is a wrap around when writing to drive has overwritten the first sector.
