Is your drive silent or is it making a clicking sound ?...you could also try uninstalling it via device manager and then reinstalling....also worth a try is running chkdisk to try and find and correct any errors... * +

@sxcrico. You may not like my Idea, but if its out of warranty and You are willing to, You may break the case, and test the HDD in a PC. Its usually a Sata HDD. * +
