Hard drive migration problem: Windows gave a strange name to my HD


My device appears to be called: 012345678901234567890123456789012345678901234567
(not my idea ). It is rather distressing, actually, and I am suspicious of a virus (I was without antivirus for a week, but was still behind a firewall). But there are these other problems with this hard drive, mentioned below.

It is my hard drive, a Hitachi, which was migrated from another computer, placed into an external enclosure, and linked to my PC using a USB 3 cable.

I would like to fix whatever it is that is causing these bizarre messages under its "properties" dialog. When there is a message that is different from "this device is working properly", it seems like a red flag.

  1. Device install requested

  2. Device not migrated

  1. Device installed (wpdfs.inf)

Any ideas what to do here? Please ignore the numbering. I had to set the messages in order of appearance. The numbers before the "Events" don't mean anything.

  1. Is there important data on this Hitachi disk ?
  2. Is it recognized in the BIOS ?
  3. If the answer to #1 is NO and #2 is YES go to step #4
  4. Open Admin Command and type:
    diskpart
    list disk ======> Make a note on disk # of the Hitachi disk
    select disk # =====> # found from above command
    clean
    exit.


If the answer is NO from step #2 above. Take the Hitachi disk out of the enclosure, open the case and connect directly to one of the sata port and reboot.

After doing what you said, the device is still called model "012345678901234567890123456789012345678901234567" by an unknown manufacturer, and its lists as a "Storage Device", connected to USB3. The actual HD is now a single-partition 1TB drive with the data that was on it, backed up.

I am wondering now if they mean the enclosure? This device does not show under the Device Manager, only under the "Devices and Printers" widget they have. The HD in question correctly shows up as a Hitachi under the Device Manager. See illustration below. For the record, the enclosure is a NextStar Super Speed CX.
