Hello,

I am new to this forum.

I have a 60 GB excelstor hardrive that I used as an external one with the help of a USD 2.0 to IDE adapter. My operating system is Windows XP and my computer is a laptop IBM Thinkpad. The hardrive was working well until I plugged back the removable CD drive. Now, this hardrive appears in disk management as an unallocated one and there is no letter assigned to it in my computer.

How can I reassigned a letter to it without losing the datas I have saved on this hardrive?

I have tried to plug it to other computer but it is also not recognized.

Thanks
