I have a 1Tb Samsung M3 Portable HDD with a lot of important data that I need to finish a job.

Last night I left my notebook rendering a movie on the HDD at my office, then came a storm, today the HDD doesn't mount (I use Ubuntu). Windows 7 doesn't detect it either.

Using testdisk I get


Current partition structure:

Partition: Read error

I hit Enter on "Quick Search" but it takes forever.

Any suggestions. I'm getting desperate :/

UPDATE:

It's been more than 10 hours. The quick search doesn't show any progress. The LED light on the external HDD keeps blinking.
