I have a Western Digital drive - WD3000JB - I wiped the hard drive on my computer (an 80GB one) and reformatted it a while back - when I got everything back up, the computer doesn't recognise the 300 gb drive. I just got an external enclosure, and put that in there, and it does the same thing on several computers. It is there in the device manager, and there is no updated driver available. It is enabled. In the administrator tools, it shows the drive as having a partition of 300 GB, but won't assign it a letter or allow me to force it to assign one or change it from none to having one. WD Lifeguard tools only gives me the option to repartition or reformat it - recognises it, but gives it no letter either. What can I do? I have some stuff on here I'd rather not lose by reformatting and repartitioning it. Is there a program to pull stuff off a damaged partition?
