Lacie 1TB Big Disk FW/USB Recovery?

[DrGrafix]

I have a Lacie Big Disk Extreme 1TB drive (FW 800/400 & USB) and I was using it as my Time Machine backup on my iMac and also a storage point for many archived files and images. Like many people, I never cataloged this disk so I would know exactly what was on it, but given the choice, I would like to recover it if possible. I am not a real HDGuru LOL, so I don't know if this unit has one or two drives inside as its under warranty and Lacie has sent me a new PS because they thought it might just be that. But the drive won't spin up, the PS goes from a solid green glowing LED to a flashing one when I plug the actual power cord into the drive housing.

Has anyone here had any experience with "fixing" a drive in this condition? I'm sure Lacie will give me a new drive, but if there's a recovery by an outside firm, I don't know who pays for that... haven't got to that yet. Any/all advice is greatly appreciated.

Sounds like the controller is toast

Don't know for sure what it is. But I have tried all three interfaces... the PS just blinks. So if its the controller, does that mean Lacie could open it up and put a new controller card/device in it and get it working again?

What is a ballpark price for recovery of a drive? I know there's not that much data on it... maybe 250 Gigs if that. Would someone like Lacie pick up the recovery since its under warranty?

Your Lacie Big Disk Extreme 1TB has 2 drives inside, and built-in RAID 0 array.

These devices often has dying PSU . If not, data recovery will cost much.
