A very good freind of mine has a problem with his storage drive, Iits Dying! He can not afford Clean Room Recovery, Who can anyway? But he has heard of something where they can replace the power components and the cylinders and you can recover, but he nor I can find anything on it. If anybody knows about this please help out.


Any Help is Appreciated!
 
If you have another drive to copy stuff too, then there is something that has worked for me a few times if its the drive assembly thats buggin out. Warning this is for last ditch efforts only. Put your drive in the freezer. Let it get nice and cold. Then bring it out and hook it up making sure electronic side down (condensation) and power up and start transferring as fast as possible (probably windows transfer). As the drive warms up it may fail again. It may take several attempts to get all the data off.

Remember this is last ditch because it will most likely finish the drive off. If your drive is very clean, condensation is less likely to short it out. It is the stuff in water that lets it conduct.

Good luck..........🙂
 
Also, if while copying it starts clanking and pauses, you could try giving it a soft yet swift whack with a screwdriver handle.

If it is not recognized by the BIOS at all it may be a bad circuit board, which on some drives is easy to exchange believe it or not.
