Hey everyone I just found this forum because I made an unfortunate mistake the other day. Short story... I accidentally reformatted my external hard drive (an Element) and when I realized what I had done I immediately just unplugged the USB from the computer. It was all a matter of several seconds. Unfortunately I think I lost EVERYTHING on that hard drive but the also big problem is that the hard drive no longer works. I plug it back in (I use an iMac) and it always says that the drive is not recognized. I also plugged it into my old laptop (an HP) and it also isn't recognized although it shows that something is plugged in. I used DiskWarrior and apparently my hard drive is so badly damaged that it can't fix it (which makes it more sadder for me). Now, is there ANYTHING I can do now??? Did I completely break my external hard drive completely rendering it useless and unusable?? Thanks for any help.
