SCSSI 146GB INITIALIZATION

[gikuyu]

Hi all,

i have a Maxtor scssi 146gb 10k ultra 320scsi drive that wount initialize.

the disk holds critical info, it was on the domain controller dell server.

i have connected it on another server running on win 2003 as a n indipendent drive, its seen in the divice manger properties but with a yellow sign to it, and the machine took like 1hr to boot.

none of my tools can see it: winhex, r-studio and get data back for ntfs.

i tried using media tools which am not sure if i can use it to view scssi drives but it still not being seen.

which tool can i use to get info out of this drive, its detected on boot up but as i said you have to wait.

kindly assist on suggestinos to get data out or tools that i can use to work on the drive

regards
