I know at work we had an external 160 GB drive and it lost its file table, and corrupted the rest of the data on the drive. We had to reformat the whole drive because of that. We lost a lot of data because of that. So be careful with those external Maxtor's, they aren't the greatest solution.

You could also go into your device manager and remove the drive and then plug it back it back and let it re-install.

Start>Control Panel>System>Hardware Tab>Device Manager>Look under Disk Drives. Right click on it, Uninstall.

Did you do a ScanDisk? Were there any errors?
