HD is still spinning and not normal clicking noise

Possibly heads related. Has it been dropped?

OK remove it from the enclosure. See the drive. A lot of time USB enclosures do this one. Not sure in your case. Try and put it direct on your PC

Had a lot of these drives come in lately in usb enclosures reporting as RAW 0

Do not format

Clone and find a good tool like GDB (Get data back) rebuild the MFT and find the file structure and take off your data.

If this does not help then you have other problems but first get it out of the enclosure and check it direct on a MB

This notebook hard drive, I do not use USB enclosures. I checked it by using a cable (IDE to USB) thanks for your analysis

Either way, you are connecting via USB, which does not help.

Could be NVRAM corruption, Could be PCB, Could be a lot of things. Until you can do a correct analysis of this it is hard to move forward. Might want to check with a DR company and see what they say on this one. I had a lot of Hitachi 2.5 Laptop drives in here lately and seems that I got a lot of NVRAM corruption on most of them. Worked one day, next day they were gone. Came ready and could not ID any longer. NVRAM was the problem on them. some were other things but anyhow no matter if it is NVRAM or something else these drives need special tools to use to fix them. So check with a DR company in your area and get a proper analysis of this HDD before you try to do something that will not work for you on this one.

em...do you have link tutprial "how to repair NVRAM" ?

If the HDD detects I find it very unlikely that NVRAM is bad.

sometimes a users knowledge is so minimum that any amount of help can do more harm than good. I think this is the case here.

If permanent data loss is not an issue for you, then carry on however if you need the information salvaged then you should get it done professionally by someone who can handle it for you safely and efficiently.

Reason I said N\VRAM on this one had one of these drives in here the other day. It was detected as his was and then gone. Was working fine but after a failed write to it and reboot the drive stopped and no longer booted and before was detected and now stopped. Then he said next day he could no longer use his notebook when it was turned on. That is why I said NVRAM on this one. but all in all it was not easy to fix the problem and he can not do this one on his own that is for sure. He has to have professional help on this one no matter what. The one I had was NVRAM and heads on it. So this drive is a good one for head failure for sure talked with some others and they all said they had a lot with head failures on this one. Well anyhow he can not do it alone.
