Should I be concerned about my other hard drives that dropped? The Exterminator didn't think it was a good idea to let it out of my room. We would be worried about our small dog and It may have caused damage to the house if they tried to catch it.

Thanks for the help. How do I take the hard drive out of the enclosure? Would doing this worsen the damage if I was going to bring it into a Data Recovery Company? What are good Data Recovery Company's? Is Seagate's Data Recovery Service any good?

update: I think I formatted the drive. I deleted the partition but it said that the drive was in use. It asked me if I would like to force close the drive. It said that errors could occur if you force close the drive. I force closed the drive and I was able to format the 2tb drive as ntfs.

In Computer Management for the 2tb drive there's a box on the left that says "200 MB Healthy (EFI System Partion). The box on the right says 1862.70 GB HFS. I was trying to format the 2tb drive to ntfs in windows. Do I need to format the 2tb drive to ntfs on the apple side?
