Hard drive bricked, any hope?
Ok, I was repartitioning my hard drive so that I could move 120 gigs from my storage partition onto the main system partition. I used easeus partition manager because the all the data on storage had be moved down 120 gigs to make some unpartitioned space in front of the main system partition. This step alone was taking 2 min. per 4k cluster. I have like 56000 clusters on the partition that had to be moved, so if you do the math that would take 38 days to complete. I figured I'd rather put up with a few corruption issues on the data drive than wait that long. Unfortunately the repercussions of interrupting this process affected the entire drive. It no longer exists, both in bios and windows repair and installer. Has anybody had/seen this problem before? Do I have any hope or solution or should I just get a new hard drive, frame and photograph the old one and post it to failblog?
