I have an external hard drive (250 GB) and I recently dropped it on the floor. It still turns on, it starts loading up, then starts clicking, and stops trying to load. I'm not sure what to do with it. Is there somewhere where I could get it repaired or is there some way I could repair it myself? I need it by Friday (5 Days). Please help me!!!!!!

Its probably busted...You need a new one but if you have files you need on it Comp USA ma be able to recover them.
Tigerdirect.com i great if you happen to have one of their few stores ( as I do) but newegg.com has better prises and shipping costs

z\sccc Losing data on a hard drive is the worst nightmare of any computer owner. However, some hard drive problems can be easily fixed yourself by using easily available tools. I found the info at http://fixit.in useful

getting a new one is easier, try repair option later
$ 70 is no big deal
