Seagate ST330621A, heads clicking...

Trying to recover data from it. Heads clicking noise, no identification on MHDD/BIOS. Any safe mode jumper mode available for it or any other thing that I could try?

Thanks!

Bad news. Head problem could also mean head crash in some cases or service area problem. No tools except professional tools to do this job with. You will need help in recovering your data off this drive. Do not open drive and do not run check disk on this drive you will only damage the media more

Internally the disk is scratched. Data recovery is possible?

It depends. Surely not 100%.

And more expensive now that it's been taken apart.
