The thing is, a few days ago, its original cable broke (due to the odd angle the mini usb port is at) and it suddenly disconnected just as I was transferring some files from my computer.<br \/>\nAt first, my computer wouldn&#8217;t recognize it, it even asked me to format it once, but after a while, I managed to hold the cable still and finally had access to my files.<br \/>\nThe cable is completely ruined now and I bough a new one, but when I plug it in, the led lights up, but the computer does not detect it and neither does the hard drive itself make any sound of functionality.<br \/>\nThe only sound it makes is a faint repetitive tap-like sound, as if it does not manage to start up or something.<br \/>\nPlease help me out, I have like 200 GB of files on there so formatting it won&#8217;t be a good solution.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"inline_featured_image":false,"iawp_total_views":20},"question-category":[47],"question_tags":[],"class_list":["post-11710","question","type-question","status-publish","hentry","question-category-hardware"],"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/computing.net\/answers\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/question\/11710","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/computing.net\/answers\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/question"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/computing.net\/answers\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/question"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/computing.net\/answers\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/computing.net\/answers\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=11710"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/computing.net\/answers\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=11710"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"question-category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/computing.net\/answers\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/question-category?post=11710"},{"taxonomy":"question_tags","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/computing.net\/answers\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/question_tags?post=11710"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
