My passport was connected to Airport extreme and I got a “Disk needs repair” message. No noise on the hard drive.
Connected the external HD to my Mac but it won’t mount. I tried mounting with `diskutil mount /dev/pathToDisk` and `diskutil mount readOnly /dev/pathToDisk` but it won’t mount. The disk is formatted in the Mac OS Extended (Journaled) format (HFS+).
I downloaded WD Drive Utilities software to check the HD and it passed WD checks.
I am not sure what to do. I cannot loose the data inside the HD (should have had a backup, I know =/) and it doesn’t mount.
