Hi,

I've been having some problems with a LaCie - harddisk which accidentally fell (the fall was from 10cm height, it doesn't even have scratches on the cask). Problem is, now it won't start up and my pc won't recognize it (so this means I haven't been able to use any programs like getdataback...). Based on the noise and previous experiences (oh yes, I also have another LaCie disk gone bad), I think it might be a damaged partition table. Therefore I would like to know:
a) If there's a way to get it recognised by my pc
b) If so, is there a program that can restore the partition table without erasing any data, or must I find a spare disk to use a datarecovery - program and reformat?

Cheers
