And this is PRECISELY why external drives are not supported by Dropbox. If the drives goes offline while Dropbox is running, Dropbox just sees that the files are no longer where they once were, assumes they were deleted and syncs that deletion to your account online.

Don't worry, all delete files are saved for 30 days, you can restore them. Go to webpage dropbox and restore them.
