Nope, wmic says OK for two drives, Computer Management shows Disk 1 Unknown, select Initialise, get fatal error message that started all this hunt. can not run chdsk because the drive can't be seen and doesn't have a hdd letter!. Downloaded Recoverit Data Recovery, but it doesn't see the bad drive as an external drive. No help at all.

my drive had this error after a usb port on one of my pc's was nudged. now the external drive clicks when it spins and I get this error when I go to check it. I get the -chkdisk can't access raw drives- It's never been a raw format drive. and none of the other methods yield any results. is my drive dead?

In the video, method 1: disk check OK. Then method 2 acts like the disk is already initialized. That's the problem. I can't initialize the disk because of the fatal device hardware error. Smh I can't format if it's not initialized. Guess I'll go scour google for an answer for another couple hours.

I look at all of the comments and you've replied to all except the main problem which is first getting past Unknown Not Initialized. You can't try any methods if the computer can't see it. Sorry just frustrated, please help.

Thank you. After trying method 4, I got the message -unable to open disk for full access- or something like that. At that point I unplugged my hard drive's power and USB, reseated them both, and it was detected

On method 4, I can't get past step 3: examining security descriptors. I get -disk read error c0000483
Insufficient disk space to fix the Usn Journal $J data stream-
