When I left this morning I didn't turn my external HD off. When I got home today and began to access it, I got the spinning pinwheel and an unresponsive finder. I couldn't eject the disk, so everything I had saved since the last time I ejected it was gone (which wasn't much).
Could leaving the HD on and connected be what caused my finder to quit?
