I've had a 3GB Toshiba canvio for over a few years nao, and it's never given me a problem. I had previously been using it with a Win7 laptop, I pulled out the USB cord without first selecting the eject option, even so it still worked fine on the new Win8 comp... At first anyway.
After about 3 hours of use on the new comp, it still stalled up while d/ling a file. I waited about half an hour and it remained frozen. After that none of the folders showed up anymore. In fact it also seems to take 2 min or so to even try to get it to open. I tried replugging it into the original Win7 comp, but nothing shows up regardless.
What just happened? Can I restore my data? But srsly wtf just happened?
