Are you saying that the drive always shows up during an initial boot but then disappears after a reboot? Or do you mean that the drive was working until the last boot attempt and is now dead?

Well, I don't think the problem is the Head 0 and 1.
This problem propably FW, BSY state, slow reponding. Permanenlty on highest drives Up 2TB, 3TB, etc.

Now 100% sure of head damage...

This is not a DIY job, if the data is important take the drive to a data recovery center.

Most likely this isn't a DIY job if you don't have any professional tools.

If you are willing to go down the road of professional data recovery and the data is important, we can take a look at it for you.
We don't charge evaluation and pick up the drive for free in Germany.

Feel free to contact me if you would like.

Regards,
Luke
