Could be dirty heads. It surely has trouble reading the data . . .

Contacts are shiny, no?

Sometimes you get a case from a computer tech and they tried to fix it with video tutorial or following Scott's website, etc., then they realize how difficult it really is but it's too late and they already damage the media :(

Analogy: You can watch and study the violinist, but some people simply don't have 1 simple piece of the talent. They either not coordinated enough, and drop screws, etc. or not patient enough, or simply not adaptive enough, etc. Now everyone gets more unrecoverable drives than ever before. Even if you succeed with the mechanical part of the job, you often have the intellectual part of the test and fail there. After the tough lesson is learned, they have more respect for the DR company?

I think Doomer may be on the right track, with suggestion of dropping.

It may have not been dropped, but I believe somehow the media/platters have been tampered with. In this case I expect the heads are in pretty good condition, but the platters may be slightely misaligned or something of that nature.

I have come to find that seagate desktop drives (I am not sure about 7200.7, only certain series) are much more tolerent to platters shifts then I had originally though, only one type of platter shift though, not all.
