WD Elements not connecting
Hi all,
I have a WD Elements 3TB hard drive which I have all my data saved on from the last 3.5 years. So as you can imagine, I don't really want to lose it.
When I connected it to my computer this morning, it significantly slowed the speed of the computer down, to a point that I couldn't open a web browser. As soon as I unplugged it, the computer returned to its normal speed.
When I managed to get file explore open on the computer and plugged in the hard drive again, it showed in the left side of file explorer as (D) instead of (E) which it normally is. The name also stayed as Local Disk rather than Elements.
Has anyone had a similar issue with a hard drive? I really don't want to lose this data so if anyone knows where I can take it to to get the data recovered, that would also be amazing.
Thank you all in advance.
