Good day, I cannot access my TrekStor external hard drive. Is there a way I can get it to work without formatting it and losing the data? I am running Windows 7. Kind Regards, Dries

Hi AHPretorius:
Do you have access to a Windows XP machine that you can try to use the drive with? Maybe a friend's computer? I would try using it with such a system and run chkdsk on the drive to make sure that the partition is healthy; otherwise, you might want to buy the DiskInternals program that may be able to help you revive the partition.
