Any suggestions for recovering from a hard drive issue?
Long story short: Drive in laptop was knocked on the floor and wouldn't reboot (no surprise). When I first put it in the USB enclosure, I was able to read off of the 2 partitions (one was a primary, the second was the recovery as it was set up by Dell in Windows 7).
Now, I'm not having any luck pulling anything up as it seems to or not respond saying there is an I/O device error when I boot up my desktop with it connected. When I've put it in my laptop (new hard drive w/ fresh Win 7 trying to recognize from external usb), it seems to only recognize the recovery drive. Just for grins, I plugged it in to my Macbook and it seems to be pulling up all of my data. What would be the easiest way to get from this drive to my new laptop drive? Thanks! |
