Advanced Hard Drive Data Recovery Part 5

Actually, it could be one of several problems. Most likely thuogh its the head hitting the platters. Do yourself a favor and watch all his videos till you undertand it all before you do anything.

Btw, thank you SuperFlyFlippingA for posting these vids.

Keep in mind the fact that he gets mre Western Digital dead drives could be as simple as the people who are willing to pay to get thier data recovered just happen to own WD drives. I have a WD drive tha still works, its the original 4.2 Gig drive from when 200 Pentium MMX was state of the ART, LOL. Unfortunatlly, I just lost alote of date and it was in a RAID O array. I think he just gets more WD drives because WD has alote more drives out there than the others do.

yep

when you get the spin-klick-klick...klick-cklick sound...is that a head problem ?

I had wd 60, 80 LB, 80 JB, 160 JB, 160 JS, and now 250 KS. They all still work.
I lost : seagate 40 gb, samsung 160 gb sata II (in january 2008 - it won`t start).
