    It could be a virus but I personally have not seen one that would wipe everything out with exception of one file.

    I know you mentioned that you connected the drive to a “hard drive enclosure”; not sure exactly what was done there but one thing I would try is to connect the hard drive directly to a good computer… when booting up the computer, will assign a drive letter to it. Go to “Computer or My Computer” and see if you can explore the drive under that drive letter it assigns.. if there is nothing there, could mean that the drive has completely failed.

    One way to know is to shake the drive and if you hear any rattling, then chances are the drive is no good. Also, if you can, run a drive diagnostic tool *such as Acronis) when you have it connected to a running computer to see what the overall condition is…

    Hope this helps
