I have an external drive that I bought from other world computing about a year ago. I use it regularly, but rarely connect it to anything other than my MacBook Pro. Yesterday when I connected it I got the error "The disk you inserted was not readable by this computer". So I ran disk utility and found a few errors. Then I was able to repair the disk, but it wont mount within finder. When I try to mount it within disk utility i get "Mount failed". I have rebooted several times and reset the PRAM also. What would be the next troubleshooting step to mount or recover this drive?
