Hello,
I'm doing a repair on a friend's mp3 player that uses a laptop HD. The drive was dead, but i ended up banging it a few more times, and I got it to work in the MP3 player. However, when I take the drive out and put it in an enclosure and try to mount it in OSX, I get " The disk you inserted was not readable by this computer"- I'm able to see the disk in Disk Utility, and it gives me the option to reformat.
I also tried hooking it up to my Windows computer, and it's more or less the same thing. Windows "sees" the drive, but won't mount it.
So I know the data on the drive is fine. What I want to do is just extract the data and move it to a new drive. Is this at all possible to do on my own?
Again, the drive works perfectly in the MP3 player (Creative Nomad Zen Xtra)
Thanks!
