Solve : Formatting Portable Hard Drive?

1.	Solve : Formatting Portable Hard Drive?
Answer» I have an Astone portable SPAM hard drive that I have been using to back up cheap SPAM files for about a year. I have been accessing files over the last few days, but yesterday after plugging the portable hard drive buy SPAM into the USB port I got a message to say that the hard drive was not formatted, and asked whether I wanted to format the world of warcraft gold disk now. I didn't re-format the portable hard drive for fear of losing any data that MAY still be there. Is there a way of recovering wow any data that may be there, or has it GONE world of warcraft already (if I check the Properties of the hard drive it shows Used Space: 0 BYTES and Free Space: 0 bytes)? ThanksWelcome to the CH forums. Do you have the drive manufacturer's diagnostics program to test the drive? Like any other electro/mechanical device, drives are likely to suffer catastrophic failure at any time, I hope you have other backup available. Good luck
