External not reading on laptop
Hello
I have a samsung external hard drive that keeps on flashing when plugged in to any laptop or pc but eventually becoming stable.The pc picks up the drive as a connected device and after a while it shows up as drive 'H' in 'My computer'. However the drive cannot be accessed.Nothing seems to happen when i try a chkdsk from cmd. I tried uninstalling the drive from device manager,after reinstalling it still does not appear.Disk management freezes if the drive is connected.i have tried recovery tools but once again it freezes when scanning for the external drive.i have alot of important info and hope someone will be able to provide a solution.
