448299 2006-04-21 22:04:00 I have a 300G removeabie hard drive which has up until now performed perfectly.

When I tried to use it yesterday I got message saying the drive was not accessible due to corrupted file structure (may not be exact message but gives general idea)

I wound up reformatting the drive and restoring the information from my PC, so no damage done.

Any suggestions as to what caused this and more importantly, how I can prevent it in future?

448300 2006-04-21 23:35:00 You didn't disconnect it while it was reading or writing to the drive did you?
What operating system are you running?

Am using it on two machines, one has xp home and the other w2000 pro
