Managed to salvage about 140GB of data out of 396GB of original data. Suspected a bad sectors is causing the hang.
Tried two times and arriving to the same result. (3)Tried using PhotoRec to recover the files, but the PhotoRec process will become unresponsive right about reading/recovering 50% sectors of I have. (2)Used TestDisk to find the lost partition, and found it YAY (Using GPT partition table type, an NTFS labled backup drive), deleted the partition table on the drive, replaced with the one found with TestDisk, no luck, Windows 7 still wants to format it. (1)Got myself a 450w battery-backup surge protector My Windows 7 system could no longer open the hard drive and it wants to format it, I suspected bad sector(s) and corrupted partition table may be the cause of it, so here is what I did. I had a pretty bad power-outage in my neighborhood when I was recording TV onto my drive prior.
I have a Seagate Barracuda ST3000DM01 3TB hard drive that used to be in an external enclosure (Seagate External Expansion drive 3TB). Hello Everyone, I posted this on the TestDisk forum figured I have a better chance of getting my answer here at tom's.
