A problem of my external hard disk

Am having a problem with my external hard disk. It is a 1TB hard disk. And i have saved my important files on it. It shows the amount of free space but when i open it , it shows that the folder is empty. I even searched for various solutions and found no result.
I have deleted the autorun using the command prompt but was of no use.
Still the problem persists.
Can anyone suggest what do i do..
