[FONT=arial]help! I have wd my passport 500gb external hdd, yesterday I tried to copy a file from my hdd and it fails, I searched the internet and I think it have bad sectors, so I try to scan for bad sectors with hddscan (it's my first time). I run the surface test and I found out that my hdd have about 1100 bad sectors. everything works just fine after that until I unplug the usb cable from my laptop and plug it into my computer. when I open windows explorer I can see the hdd drive but couldn't open it, it just freeze until a message popped up it says "incorrect parameter". please help! I need the data really bad, my whole life depends on it [/FONT]
