Hi,
Dropping a drive can be catastophic but usually isn't.
I suspect you may get lucky and find out it's just some of the circuitry in the trekstor shell that is damaged.
Take the Trekstor unit to your nearest PC shop and ask the technicians there to remove the Hard Drive and put it in a new enclosure to test it. If it works in the new enclosure, buy the enclosure and your done. If it doesn't work in the new enclosure then you may be suffering from worse issues that will require the help of a pro.
Either way let me know how you make out, if you need a pro for the next step, reply back with you location(Country, State, City) and I will refer you to the closest facility who can assist you.
Hope this Helps FixYa,
Chris
