HDD is asking to be formatted and got an error "G: is not accessible. The Parameter is in correct" ???

Assalamualaikum,

I got an issue with one of machine in my Plant. PC in this machine asks for certain HDD to be formatted. The story is began, when one of my friend upgrade the machine software version. He got the file to upgrade the version from teh vendor, but the result after he restart the PC is HDD needs to be formatted.

We got an application from google to solve this issue. This application is called by recover data application. Maybe you can see here to see what application is needed to recover the data. Then i chose recover my files to solve my issue. This application is comercial one, then i just start recovery, and after that i can't do anything :D.

Finished using this application, my HDD has an other error :(. The error is "G: is not accessible. The Parameter is in correct". I search again in google and found it, that HDD should go to check disk (CHKDSK). From command prompt, i write CHKDSK E: /F /R /X and after waiting for 1 night, i got the hardisk can be accessed :)

let's check it out, what is CHKDSK E: /F /R /X ? from this site, we got that :

/F : Fixes errors on the disk.

/R : Locates bad sectors and recovers readable information (implies /F).

/X : Forces the volume to dismount first if necessary. All opened handles to the volume would then be invalid (implies /F).

ok, hopefully it can help you also to solve your issue ;)
