Guest NewsBot Posted June 28, 2012 Share Posted June 28, 2012 I have an older desktop PC running WinXP that crashed. I had 2 - 320GB hard drives. I have mounted the drives in an external enclosure, but can't get onto the drives with a new core i7 desktop running Win7. I don't see the drive when I try to access them through 'my computer', but when I run 'Computer Management' and then 'Disk Management', the console SEES the drive and gives this info: <span>It shows as a volume with no drive letter - only as 'Disk 10' </span> <span>Layout: Simple </span> <span>Type: Basic </span> <span>File System: none shown </span> <span>Status: Healthy (Active, Primary Partition) </span> <span>Capacity: 298.09 GB </span> <span>Free Space: 298.09 % </span> <span>Free: 100% </span> <span>Fault Tolerance: No </span> <span>Overhead: 0% </span> <span>It is shown as being 'Online' There IS data on the disk even though it shows 100% empty.....so what does that indicate? </span> <span>If I right click on the drive, ONLY the 'Delete Volume: and 'Help' are active - everything else is greyed out so I can 't change anything. </span> <span>So, help would sincerely be appreciated.</span> View the thread Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
