    Code:
    diskpart
    list disk
    -----is it still disk5 we're talking about? Use the number of the RAW disk
    select  disk 5

    Hi gd5583,

    I have doubts whether you did it right.

    For running boot sector repair and MFT Repair you should adopt the following procedure.
    1st Screen: select "No log" [ENTER]
    2nd screen: Should show all your drives with correct capacity. Does it???? Post a screenshot.
    This is my 750GB external drive.

    External Hard drive has changed to RAW file system-31-10-2014-20-00-42.jpg

    If it shows your external drive with correct capacity, then select it [ENTER]

    3rd Screen: Select [Intel] - Intel/PC partition [ENTER]
    4th Screen: Select [Advanced] - File System Utilities [ENTER]

    5th Screen: Post a screenshot. The general procedure is that [BOOT] will already be selected, press Enter.

    6th screen:IF Boot Sector, and backup boot sector OK you should select [MFT Repair] [ENTER]
    IF NOT [Rebuild BS]
