G-Drive issues

My computer froze and had to do a hard reset, at the time I had my g-drive connected via e-sata.

Now the drive won't mount at all on the Mac, or be recognized in Disc Utility. I tried all ports usb/firewire, nothing.

On Windows it will recognize the drive but just as "Local Disk" and the letter (previous drive name is gone). If you click on it you get "Disc structure is corrupted and unreadable".

in disc management , it says the partition is healthy but it is now in RAW format (was HFS).

Any ideas on how to fix the disc or programs to back up the data would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you
 
If this disk is not backed up and the data is critical, your only option is to send it to a drive recovery service and hope that they can get it back. Don't perform any further operation on the drive.
