I'm pretty shite with computers, and I have a problem that no amount of googling has been able to fix. I have a Seagate Backup Plus external, and it's been running fine for the better part of a year, but now when I plug it in it detects the drive but won't open it. Pic related, E: is the external. Pls help me

that'll be 5 (you)s pls
>>57763617
Your HDD might be dead, the connectors have too much humidity or you just make it shit by bumping on it or something
Restart your computer and plug it again
If this still doesn't work then download Speccy and check your external HDD's S.M.A.R.T. status
>>57763673
The only proper response
>>57763617
/g/ is not tech support fag. take it /sqt/
delete this thread and try again
>>57763693
What in gods name is Speccy?
>>57763617
run hdd health on it and post results.
what does Disk Management (cmd --> "diskmgmt.msc") say about the hdd?
>>57763706
I didn't even know /sqt/ was a thing. Don't be a cunt
>>57763717
I'll post a screenshot of the diskmgmt when it loads. Is hdd health already on windows or do I need to download it
>>57763692
yes sir
>>57763779
*maam
th-thats only one though...
>>57763717
>>57763773
you need to download it. post results over at /sqt/. >>57763706
is correct.
>>57763797
this looks fine
>>57763860
Where is /sqt/?
Is it similar to speccy? Because I got that and ran it and it's telling me that everything is fine
Can someone at least link me to this /sqt/ thing then? I can't find it
>>57763779
hello yes im still waiting on my yous ty
>>57763692
Not that guy, but have one from me.
>>57763860
That doesn't look fine you retard, it clearly says the filesystem is RAW.
