OK, I went to back up all my important info to my external detachable hard drive today and just like last time it said the disk was corrupt and had to be reformatted. Does anyone have any idea why this is happening? After I backup my info I detach it, so it shouldn't be subject to power spikes or anything else. I'm only backing up documents and pics, so I'm not sure why there is such a problem.
Any ideas on what is going on? --------------------   |

I always do the "safely remove thing". However, the problem has deepened. My 2 year old ran in the room and hit escape while I was trying to reformat the hard drive. Now it will not let me reformat it and crashes the computer when I try. It gets to the point where it says it cannot reformat and brings up a retry or cancel option (I think), but the computer just freezes up.
