3TB backup has amnesia... Help

#1 Post by MrDave »

Hi,
I had my 3TB External drive connected to my PC non stop. There has been a power outage since I last used my 3TB, and when I tried to use my drive it didn't show up. Note: I don't know if this matters, but the drive has been swapping files between Win 7 and Mac OSX.

When I first got it detectable with Computer Management, it showed:
NTFS, "Reserved to system", 100 MB
And my other Partition "Bank of Life" (the remainder of the drive)
It showed up, but wasn't accessible. I accidentally tried to format the drive, and cancelled it mid-way through.

Now it is showing up as

Under GTP -> Advanced it shows:

After Analysing:

I have no clue what to do next... Any help ? Please
