this procedure actually works for a flash drive although most cases you will be asked to format the card. but in this case of external HDD im particularly interested in the data and not really the disk. is it possible ?

I'll be back after I format my 8gb back to normal
Re: How To Repair Corrupted Hard Drive/memory Card by jammyunn(m): 11:00am On Aug 14, 2015
Guys, pls don't try this if you don't wanna lose your remaining files. It doesn't repair per say, it formats your drive/card. Except you want a total format, don't try this.

-first insert the memory card or hard drive through the USB port and remove
All other drives if connected.
-now check the letter name of your memory card or hard drive it could be letter G, F or any other letter.
-now click start and search for command prompt

-now type diskpart in command prompt and pop up might appear asking for permission, click on ok.

image2

-now type listdisk and you will see all the external drive listed there

image3

-you will see your external drive number note down the disk number.
-now type select disk disks number (for example select disk 4)and press enter.
-now type clean and press enter.
–now type create partition primary and then press enter.
-now type active and then press enter.
-now enter the command select partition 1.

Another way of bringing your hard disc back to live, is rap it with 5to6 nylon and put it in freezer for 5days. the nylon is to prevent water from entry. after the 5day remove it from the nylon and allow it to dry for 24hour. note: don't dry it in sun. just keep it in dry place. After that you can use it only as external hard disc.

your own case is critical ooo, appearing and disappearing is a common symptom of witchcraft therefore there is no solution here.
