Geez .. with all that.... I UNPLUGGED the harddrive from the wall
socket... let it cool off...
replugged... and
I got it all back!!!!
yayayayaya!
It was the only thing I hadn't tried -- all I did before was check that
the connection was tight
sigh
thanks for all the hugs andd stuff
ann
That's good news.
NOW, get a second drive and copy everything too it before this one fails
again. If you're worried about the quality and reliability of Seagate
externals, look for drives by Iomega, Toshiba or Hitachi (and other
brands).
I don't recommend Western Digital because they are so slow to mount when
you plug them in. I know this because I have some Western Digital USB
drives. Bought them because they were the lowest price at the time. And
I still use them. But they are slooooooooooooooow to mount!
I've also had more trouble with Western Digital hard-disk failures than
I have experienced with other brands. But that's over a period of 20 years.
Eventually, ALL hard-disks fail.
