The drive was formatted right before I sold my previous MBP today and I put some important files on it. It was working before and with the old MBP.

When I put it in the usb port it says:

The disk you inserted was not readable by this computer
INITIALIZE IGNORE EJECT

I hit INITIALIZE and it takes me to Disk Utility and run verify disk. It says:


ALERT
Partition map check failed because no slices were found.
OK




Does anyone know of a way to access or fix/repair what I have? I'm not sure what to do. I'm pretty sure I have a backup of the files on it but I don't want to risk it until I'm sure. Plus I may learn something here.

Ideas?
