What is the result if you run "cmd" (right click "run as administrator") and "chkdsk /f e:" ?
If it doesn't work, it's always possible to use PhotoRec but it will not recover the original filenames of your lost files.

The boot sector is damaged. Can you try TestDisk, Advanced, Boot, List ?
If it works, choose BackupBS and confirm.
If it doesn't, try RebuildBS, List, choos Write and confirm if you can see your files.
