    Other computers cannot recognize my hard disk. On my computer, a message appears often that says: "H:\\$secure" corrupted. I can't find this file in H. What is it?

    My ED is not recognized and it generates excessive heat.
    Does that mean I cant use my external WD 3200 anymore?
    Pls Help

    Have you noticed any peculiar sounds, such as whirring, clinking, etc, or an increase in heat from it?

    Also, have you checked the device manager for the drive, or just My Computer?

    Does the computer not show up at all, or is there a plug-and-play icon for removable media that appears when the drive is plugged in?

    Is the device getting power?

If u are using a external hard disk case with the normal hard disk
try connecting your hard disk with a new casing.
if it is made as a external hard disk change the cable .
because after a few time usage the cable will not be quite good as new.
After inserting the usb cable in your pc if it shows any warning
information, or any message just give me that too for exact solution
