Hi there. Recently I have started getting the following popup whenever I plug in my external HD:
"The disk you inserted was not readable by this computer"
I have always clicked 'Initialise' afterwards to get into the Disk Utility, however in the First Aid tab I have no option to click Repair, Verify or anything for that matter. I can erase, but I am terrified to do that unless it's absolutely necessary (and even then I don't even know if it will cause the HD to start working again). What's more; the HD itself is either 250GB or 320GB (I can't remember which right now), but it says that there is 2.2TB worth of space? Wut? This is all rather confusing, so any light that can be shed on this situation would be hugely appreciated.
Here is a screenshot of the First Aid page in the Disk Utility for further reference.
