[QUOTE="Channel Hopper, post: 1023671, member: 175144"] If you cannot get the disk to be recognised, or the data on it cannot be retrieved using the chkdsk function, throw it away, it's knackered. Plenty of horror stories out there with the passport drives failing for no reason at all, usually with the content being pemanently unrecoverable. It is the circuitry WD use to encrypt the detail within the case as opposed to the hard drive itself, but from memory this cannot be salvaged either, even after dismantling. [/QUOTE]
