Hi,
My Seagate HDD stop working & show as unallocated with 3.86GB.
After my diagnostic when i plug the disk in the power support of computer, the disk motor works but after some seconds i heard knocks .. after 7 or 8 knocks the motor disk stop.
After that the motor stops, does it start to spin again after few seconds or it stay stationary?
If motor starts to spin again without re-plugging power supply, then it might be a firmware issue, this can happen often in particular 7200.11 seagate drives as ST3750330AS or ST31000333AS models.
But if you have any other seagate family or even a common 7200.11 drive as ST3500320AS model, then motor will not spin up again automatically and this means that heads are faulty.
