Seagate 1TB Expansion Drive is not being recognized on my laptop
My Seagate Expansion drive is not being recognized on my laptop or any other computer that I have tried to put it on. It worked for a while
It is fairly new and I have about 500gb on it so far and I don't want to lose any of my data because most of it is my university files. I don't know why this is happening and I also can't even change the drive letter, I really don't know much about computers but this forum seems to help people, hope someone can help me Please. Thank you. |

My expansion drive is still not being recognized and a few of my friends said that this happens with a lot of seagate drives and this is really starting to make me mad because I paid $170 for it and only used it once.
I am a student so I need everything that is on it. Please someone help!!! I'm not really good with computers either so I'm extra frustrated! |
