I have windows XP Pro on a Sony Laptop (a year old). For a while I had three Buslink USB external drives (40gb) connected to it. Until recently, I had to restore an image (using acronis true image 8), without any signs or warning, one drive was no longer available (after the reinstall it was working fine). When I boot up the laptop, it get stuck on the process it boots windows and the drive's light is blinking in 1 second increment and making the click sound as of trying to connect yet can't. Tried several troubleshoots without sucess. later that month, I had the second drive letter to disappear and the only way I was able to access was thru partition software. I'm able to copy from it, yet nothing else. so lately i've been copying from it. So, What would u suggest I do with the first HD (unable to access it completely and the click I hear doesn't sound like a damaged completely drive like). And the second drive?
