Better yet, get an external 160 gb hd @ 7200 rpm for around 140$ and back your up on it for future. |

ha! happened to me just a few weeks ago. turns out the sucker (160 gig) just overheated. i let it sit a bit, n then hooked her back up, worked like a charm. however, a while back, i lost a 40 gig with a good amount of livesets on it.
oh, that reminds me.

The only way a drives data is unrecoverable is if the plate the drive reader/writer head writes to is shattered or has numurous scratches on it (which is probably not the case).
Did you try using any data recovery programs? Or can you not get the computer to recognize the drive anymore? |

The drive was not recognized at all. I tried reconnecting/waiting/everything and it didn't work. I figured I'd lost all the data anyway so I tried to reformat the drive but that didn't work either, so I guess I'll just have to get this:
