Partition issues with 3TB drive - newbe
Posted: 03 Oct 2012, 16:06
I have a 3TB external drive(actually two is a Buffalo Drive system enclosure) that apparently got messed up due to improper shutdown. Windows 7-64bit is showing it in Disk Management having two partitions, one 2048.00 gb unallocated and a 746.21 GB unallocated but there is just one partition on the disk. The second hard drive is showing up perfectly fine as a Basic 2794.08 GB NTFS healthy primary partition. Analyse is still running, I am posting what has come up as of 89% complete, hoping that this might be enough to give me some direction. I will post the rest when it is done
Thanking you in advance for your help!
