Just explain the problem to them, besure to tell them that you got the same error with the drive hooked up to a different computer, and lets see what they say.

Something Happened 
While trying external hard drive on another computer I've noticed two folders which could be opened, 1st one is folder recycler and second is an icon software offer. So I clicked on both of them and Software offer asked for installation I rejected this offer. Then I went back to the External Hard Drive and all the folders with pictures disappeared, but the space occupied on the EHD is the same 741 GB is free out of 931 GB. So in complete shock i attached this EHD back to my computer and it is the same. Worried that folders with pics disappeared. Complete shock(banghead:
