Contamination inside or was the drive exposed to chemical by a chance?

"another one bites the dust."

Airborn dust particles do a LOT of damage to HDD platters.

It's not particle as there's a filter on breather hole...

[zebong]

no, it dont look like Particules, the heads 0 2 3 where "white" on the heads, dont know what is it !!!

[BlackST]

Well, if there is not platter contamination, you have a BIG MEDIA DAMAGE on surfaces 0,2,3... ouch ! Check it...

Check color from dust filter zebong,

I look at both filters.

And it have a filter near the heads maybe the "withe" dust, that was on the heads it came from here.

The plattes look OK
