Seagate 320 GB (ST3320820A) drive doesn't work. Removed drive from Iomega portable drive enclosure. Plugged drive into another computer, still not recognized. As slave, drive became warm, while master drive remained cool. Drive spins, but does not make excessive noise (no grinding or clicking). Shows up in BIOS as "0 GB" but does not show drive type, etc. Would like to recover data if possible so I'm looking for any suggestions (such as buying another drive and swapping PC board, etc). Thank you.

The DIY "solution" to which likeminders posted the link to is for 7200.11 series drives, not 7200.10 like yours. Completely different.
