I have tried many things, plug it - unplug it, I have the cable replaced and
the computer is replaced, all without improvement. The plate was simply not recognized.
Unfortunately, data were already on the plate, which had a second time longer exists otherwise,
so I did not want to send in you, because of fear of data loss.
The self has the disk is defective, I could not imagine and opened
without further ado, the housing (loss of warranty!). I have the drive to a S-ATA - USB
Hung adapter and connected to my computer.
The drive is started and it was also recognized something. Unfortunately, Windows wanted the plate
format, because no file system has been detected. A last attempt was the diagnosis with
a data recovery tool (Acronis Disk Director). This has a lost
Recognized partition and restored.
Behold, all the data were back and the drive is running perfectly.
I come to the conclusion that the weakness of this product in the built-in electronics
the housing. And as I have now researched, some buyers the same problem
were privileged to meet. Since I could hardly use this hard drive 20 times, can
I no longer like a star to give, because this article unusable in this form
was or is. However, since the built-in disk is OK and I can continue to use them, have
I me to forgive struggled through another star.
The solution is now buying a empty housing for 10 euros and I have another
functioning external disk (even with USB 3.0).
I hope I could help with this evaluation to the one or the other.
