Hello,
Try this:
# Download USB Fix on your computer, and launch it.
# It will start automatically, and a shortcut will be created on your desktop.
# Connect all your external data sources to your PC (Usb keys, external drives, etc...) Do not open them.
# Choose " Deletion " option.
#The computer will re-start, and it may be longer than usually.
# UsbFix will display a message at re-start.
# Click "OK" to start cleaning.
# Copy/paste the report here.

No, it does not delete data, it corrects errors and deletes viruses. It's 100% safe and has been tested thousands of times. Just make sure to follow the procedure.
Try it, you will like it.

Hi poisoned-apple,
I would recommend you to reinstall the device's drivers from Device Manager, restart the PC, and plug the device back in. If the device is still not showing in My Computer and is giving you the same message from Disk Management, try on a different PC or with a different USB cable. If none of this helps, I would use a Linux Live CD to try to access and copy the data and format the device after that. Unfortunately these type of issues appear. It could be software related or because the drive has been removed without being properly ejected. I would recommend you to use the external drive as a backup destination, which will leave you with another copy of your data.
Hope this helps
Happy New Year
