All in the title. Around 800gig used on it, and it says it's still using this. Can open it, but then can't open any folders due to an I/O device error. Running the mouse over the folders and they say empty. It worked fine yesterday, hadn't even been moved. Running Windows 7 professional.

 

Read the forums and they do nothing. Changed cords, on/off, different computers, reinstalled drivers. Device Status: working properly. Nada. Tried it on a Mac and got the same thing except instead of an I/O device error, it simply said error -43.

 

Model: ST9500325AS, Serial: 5VE7NBMA, Firmware: 0002SDM1

 

I'm in trouble huh.
