Buzz

I force the disk to F level and in FW Diagnostic i receive this output:

You see nothing after 'Buzz'? Is disk spinning?

Disk doesn’t spin. When I turn the power on, I can fill like vibration and buzzing noise and after 20 seconds one beep.

Sounds like stuck heads to platter or motor jammed.

How much force I need you use if is head stuck? This will be my first time for this, maybe will be painful

Thanks for your support, this is incredible good forum.

90% of time it is not heads stuck, but platters stuck. This job needs pro help.
