I have a simpletech 250gb external hard drive, that up and until tonight was giving me no problems. I was in the midst of using a program that had a file stored on the drive (Dreamweaver-web files) and I had the power disconnected (friends baby pulled my power cord). So now, ever since then I can't get my drive to be recognized and it seems to freeze up my computers when I turn it on. It is recognized in my device manager but not in my explorer, and I ran the TestDisc program but it's not really finding anything, and I really can't lose the data on this thing.

Anyone know how to fix this?
