When I found them. I had 5 'important' .rar files on that HDD which were gone and the others were Mp3's...
Also the scandisk which ran on that protable HDD wasn't rare, on the display it showed 'deleting orphaned file index' approx. 50,000 times, if I recall correctly... So therefore when WinXP started and I checked that hdd's capacity, 80 GB was gone...
