Its probably the ribbon cable going to the laser. Sometimes they lose their rigidity and start raising up and hitting the disc. It was super common with ps2. Use some clear packing tape and wrap it around the ribbon to keep it more rigid under the disc area.
I have the same problem with my hard drive. I tried opening and restarting my hard drive. it didn't work. I had a lot of files. how can i restore it. I have been keeping my broken hard drive for 5 years🙌
I have this problem and more I found black powder in the hdd everywhere and the top disk looked like it had some watermarks even though it was completely dry I don’t know what and how to fix that now
This isn‘t a crashed head, it straight up looks like someone hit the platter multiple times with a screwdriver while it was spinning. Trust me, I have done so.
Some but not all. The data on the areas physically scratched off is gone forever, but the unaffected areas could be recovered if the disk was sent to a data recovery company.
My Seagate 500gb HDD is the same. But I have another Seagate 80gb Hdd and it is still normal. Can I do something to make my Seagate 500gb to become normal ?
Nope. Those very visible track marks on the platters there are visible damage to the magnetic material on the platters. When a head crashes like this, the areas physically affected are basically destroyed, in fact you can see some of the 'dust' in the bottom of the disk enclosure - that's particals of the scraped off magnetic materials.
the repair cost base on the what size u purchase if I'm not wrong because the technician repair this kind hard drive it need to take a long time to read ur all files and u need brought a new one to copy into it from faulty hard drive
I tried recovering the drive itself, since data was mostly gone but for some small files. I tried partitiong the good sectors from the bad. Ended up with 70 partitions. I threw it out after.
possibly. if you have important data on a drive that has crashed heads like this, stop using it and send it to a data recovery company. They'll tear the drive apart, and remount the platters on a different drive to attempt to recover data.
@@2GuysTek i asked cus i punched my lap tom in posision were is hard disck and now my lap top is sayin things like :Automamic reper, Diagnosing your pc and other stuffs like that
I would highly recommend you reach out to a hard drive recovery company to see if they can recover your data. In a situation like the one we show in the short, if your drive is being destroyed by the heads, DO NOT POWER the drive! Package it up safely and ship it off to a company that can pull the drive apart and (hopefully) recover some of your data!
