Answer #1

Several possibilities:

Empty recycle bin of drive. Recycle bins use up disk space even though no files are visible on the drive.

If that won’t help…

Remove from computer and try on another computer.
Assign a different drive letter and re-attach. (Maybe it’s battling over a drive letterwith another device)
Hidden files? Are there any hidden files on your drive?
Broken file system. Try to google a program that repairs your file system. Whichever you use.

Answer #2

You may try this data recovery. I used to use it to recover my lost data on my external hard drive. It works pretty well, you may give it a try.
