Hello Community,
Best Regards to all from Buenos Aires. I have a 3tb My Book external HDD but lately I’m having some issues with it and I’d like to know if you can give me some guidance about it.
Let me explain a little bit the story behind it: When I bought the HDD, I connected it to my LG BD-360 (bluray player) for all my backup anime, movies, series, music (so I can use it with my 7.2 home theater) but it seems the blu-ray player doesn’t recognize partitions above 2tb.
So, I partitioned int 4 units (Anime, Movies, Music, Series) but the player didn’t recognize the information from any partition but the first one, so I partitioned again into 2.
Now, the player is still showing 4 partitions created, although I only have 2 and the information within the 2nd partition is not displayed.
I would assume it’s a problem with the blu-ray player if it weren’t because this last week I bought a Xtreamer Ultra, which is running XBMC and the XBMC is not mounting the second partition.
Now, this morning I deleted by mistake a folder with some anime and I wanted to run the GetDataBack for NTFS and right after it starts to scan the HDD, it pops a I/O error "Unknown error (87) and it doesn’t continue with the scan.
I’ve ran a full chkdsk /f with no issues. I’ve installed and check the partitions with EASEUS Partition Master and both checks came out with no faults or errors.
I really don’t mind the data lost, I can get it back but I’m really concerned about a possible faulty disk.
I hope somebody can shed a light on this.
Thanks in advance
Best Regards to all
Janus
