I need help fixing my external hard drive, details below

#1 Post by kimmandy »

Hi! I have an external hard drive. It just stopped working out of nowhere. My device manager recognizes it but it doesn't show up in file explored. The screen caps below show how my disk manager shows it as well as what crystal disk info shows.

I tried recuva but it just says unable to determine file system type

I tried photorec but it looks like it would take 1,000+ hours

Any comments/suggestions/help?
