Do you remember removing it without clicking on "safely remove hardware"? if yes, then probably its damaged, get it to the service center, they give lifetime warranty. don't tell them how it got damaged.

Or, you can try a low level format. If that doesnt work either, take it to the service center.

Low level format can be dont by several tools,
which you can get from hddguru.com or google for "HP Drive Key Boot Utility"
