I believe that is called Intel's Speed Boost technology, I don't remember it ever really dealing that great of results.  If you unplugged it without ejecting, you probably totally corrupted the drive, short of a data recovery professional, I doubt you will get that drive back to anything useful.

Have you tried using a partition manager that is not just the one built into Windows? The standard one is rather awful.
