Hello computer geeks in this thread and hope you can help with my problem. I have an external Toshiba Canvio 1TB portable USB HDD and happens to be unaccessible right now. Each time I tried to plug it, the computer says "can't access the drive" and asking to reformat it which, I cannot afford to do. I tried running chkdsk on command prompt but no progress and always getting stuck on "CHKDSK is verifying Usn Journal...", waited for 5 hours and still stuck there. I tried running on /I and /C but same thing happens. I tried using Recovery Software (Recuva by Piriform) to recover whatever I have there but not all files were retrieve. Is there any possibility or way to fix the problem with my HDD? or can you recommend better recovery software if all other way fails? Please help me...thanks in advance!
