Hi,
I am trying to recover data from ST1000DM003 Seagate 1tb HDD but I am confused to what the problem could be.
The HDD spins fine and without any unusual noises.
Windows Assigns the letter - but no other information.
Disk Management Shows the HDD sometimes but other times would just keep loading until HDD switched off.
TestDisk - finds no partitions.
Linux - the drive shows as unknown partition but after few minutes it will show no media
Any suggestions?

Most likely a firmware problem, exacerbated by media issues.
Also a weak or suspect read/write head is common on these in our experience.
The only sensible suggestion I can make is to seek pro assistance. Sure it’ll cost you, but it’s your call as to whether the data is important enough to you.
Feel free to drop me a PM or email, or if you want somebody closer try John at Cheadle Data Recovery.
