(Mini running Snow Lep; Seagate 2TB external drive, formatted HTFS)

The (1 year old) Seagate went south about 3 weeks ago, stopped mounting. 

I was able to see it temporarily (10 min) by unplugging and then replugging it 
in. 

Even then, the single partition on the drive appeared to be unreadable. Disk 
Utility couldn't detect anything, number of files, free space, etc. Disk 
Warrior 4.3 nor Drive Genius got anywhere with it either.

After a couple of days of trying to forget, I came back to the Mini and for an 
unrelated reason had to boot into XP.

XP sees the drive! (which, again, is formatted HTFS)

XP is allowing me to copy the files to a new drive(which I formatted FAT).


Can anyone tell me why this is happening?
Or should I just keep quiet and be happy?
