Hello,
I was previously using a 60GB 5400RPM Maxtor HD as my slave drive, putting things on it like mp3s, backups, etc. Anyways, all the sudden Windows told me that the data on it was corrupt, and it could not be read. Taking it as not THAT great of loss, I just told Windows to format the drive. Well, it did, but instead of the 57.x amount of gigs it was detecting before, now it's only seeing 31.5 gigs there. I low-level formatted the drive with Maxtor's utilities, but to no avail. Disk Manager is seeing the whole disk as only being that 31.5 gigs. Any idea as to what may have happened, and any way to restore this hard drive?
Thanks for your time, and especially for your help.
