Data recovery and disk repair questions and discussions related to old-fashioned SATA, SAS, SCSI, IDE, MFM hard drives - any type of storage device that has moving parts

Hi,
I have a Hitachi Deskstar HDT725050VLA360 disk that doesn't spin up. The noise is close to the "stuck spindle trying to spin up with siren" on page
http://datacent.com/hard_drive_sounds.php in Western Digital section.
As far as I know it was not fallen, but maybe shaken or switched off-on rapidly.
Do you have any ideas what can be the problem, what can be done?
Thanks for any answers,
Gabor

Hello Gabor,
I think it is most probably a stuck spindle.
There are some things that can be done, but it requires special equipment and experience, so it is recommended that you contact a professional DR firm if the data is critical. We can also help if needed, see my profile.
best regards,
pepe
