I bought this EZ Quest HD a year ago and have had so many damn problems...fyi..there product sucks and their service was much much worse (took 3 months and no communication to repair the HD the first time it failed).

Anyway...now it won't mount and Disk Utility is giving me an Invalid Node Structure warning but won't repair it? Does anyone know what this means, what sort of chance I have of getting my data back, and if there is a free utility that will fix it?

I ahd this same issue recently with a Firewire HD. I don't think you'll find a free utility that will help. When I posted here, someone suggested Disk Warrior with the following twist (see Alsoft ). I had tried DW and it couldn't see the drive, but someone suggested starting DW, then plugging in the HD. By the time I received this advice, I had already reformatted the HD and restored from a CD backup I had made a month before.

Good luck.
