So, I am having a bit of trouble with my external hard drive - it is a 1TB portable Porsche Design hard disk. The issue is that the drive will not mount and even though I had a similar problem back in December that wound up resolving itself (it actually decided to mount one day) and even if it is just a transient issue, I am concerned that this might be a symptom of a bigger problem.
When I load up Disk Utility, it gives me the following error when I try to repair the drive:
Vérifier et réparer le volume «*LACIE SETUP*»
Vérification du système de fichiers
Réparation du volume terminée.
Mise à jour des partitions de prise en charge du démarrage pour le volume, comme requis.
Erreur*: Utilitaire de disque ne peut pas réparer ce disque. Sauvegardez autant de fichiers que possible, reformatez le disque, puis restaurez vos fichiers sauvegardés.
(In English:
Check and repair the volume "LACIE SETUP"
Checking file system
Repair volume completed.
Updated partitions support booting to the volume as required.
Error: Disk Utility can not repair the disk. Save as many files as possible, reformat the disk, and then restore your backed up files.)
So, I guess the question is - what hard drive do you recommend that I buy to replace the Lacie drive? Additionally, do you know of any good data recovery places that deal with these drives?
