I was working fine for the first two years but then it broke down. I only plugged another hd (like other much times).
I think the problem is the motor, don't spin the disk platters. Here I have other equivalent HD, but this work right. The difference is when the power is on,
the wrong HD makes a initial noise and nothing more, except a periodic cliking noise of 3'5 seg. of duration (1 seg. silent - 3'5 noise - and so on) . On the other hand, the right HD makes the same initial noise and then its motor starts to run and so on.
(Changing the board don't help).
Excuse me for my poor english.
El problema creo que es de motor, no giran los platos, tengo aqui otro disco duro equivalente que funciona bien. Y la diferencia es que el roto cuando le llega la corriente hace un ruidillo inicial y ahi se queda, excepto que se oye un leve sonido de 3'5 seg. de duracion cada 1 seg.. En el que funciona bien, se oye ese mismo ruidillo y a continuacion empieza a girar el motor y ya pues tira pa'lante.P.S. He pasado la prueba del ?ndice de inteligencia. 119 recibidos en esta prueba.

I recently had the same thing occur to my HDD. SP1604N. I read of a guy who replaced his logic board on a differnt brand HDD and it worked for him. Did you try that? Did you ultimately solve the problem or retrieve your data without having to engage a recovery company? I call one near me and they seem very competent and they do government work but they charge between $600 and $1000 for the recovery. A lot of money for some photos, videos and MP3s. I guess this is a good lesson back up, then back up again on a redundant back up. My experience now is you can never be too safe. |
