Verbatim 320 GB USB 2.0 Portable External Hard Drive 96822
Now I don't know exactly what the point of the long name is or wat it mean, but I was hoping someone could explain it to me. I understand the 320 GB is the amount of memory I think, but the one thing I dont know is what the 2.0 means. Can someone help me out?
Answer
It's USB version 2.0 . As opposed to USB version 1.1, 1.0, etc.
Portable means it's portable.
Verbatim is the manufacturing company.
External means it's external.. it doesn't go IN your computer..
And 96822 is probably the model number or SKU#.

i hate to say it but it sounds as though the hard drive has reached the end of it's life. does it make a ticking noise?...or perhaps grinding?
there really isn't much you can do. try a system restore. [it probably won't work]
follow this path:
1/ start
2/ all programs
3/ accessories
4/ system tools
5/ system restore
a new window will open. click on "restore my computer to an earlier time" then hit next.
choose a date prior to the start of your problems, and follow prompts. be aware that this will reverse any changes you have made to your pc in the intervening time, but items contained in folders will remain unchanged. when pc reboots it will take a couple of minutes before you can use the desktop and start menu again. this is quite normal and you should not be tempted to try to interrupt the restore process.
if you manage to get the hard drive icon back into "my computer", you should then do a disk check.
follow this path:
1/ start
2/ my computer
3/ right click on hard drive icon and hit "properties"
4/ click on "tools"
5/ click on "error checking" and "check now"
6/ a new window opens, check the boxes for "automatically fix file system errors" and "scan for and attempt recovery of bad sectors", click on start.
if you have got this far, then a disk check can take many hours, depending on the size of the disk. you should be allowing around 1 hour per 100 gigs. NEVER INTERRUPT A DISK CHECK!!!...LET IT RUN IT'S COURSE, NO MATTER HOW LONG IT MAY TAKE.
i really hope that this works for you, but i have a feeling it is all over for this drive. in future make sure you have at least 2 back-ups. good luck.
