this is interesting: I tried accessing 'Neil' from the GUI but get an error: 

Sorry, could not display all the contents of "Neil": Error when getting information for file '/media/bmike1/Seagate Expansion Drive/Documents/Business/CablingJobs/Neil/IMG_20150205_180721.jpg': Input/output error) 

and when I attempt to access it from a tty get:

 $ ls Neil/

ls: cannot access 'Neil/IMG_20150205_180604.jpg': Input/output error

ls: cannot access 'Neil/IMG_20150205_180721.jpg': Input/output error
