Sometimes, sometimes there are thermally intermittent connections which screw things up. Resting for a while has worked for me twice. 2. Put the disk in a freezer for about 15 minutes. You do not want to freeze it, but make it cold. That's worked for me at least 4 times. First though, find out what files/directories are the most important. You may not have much time with it. My so far best luck has been R-Studio. I think it once found stuff when regular OS's didn't see anything. --STeve Andre'
