By your not providing a terminal log, I'm assuming that you don't have the necessary tools and likely need a professional diagnosis of this drive to know exactly what the point of failure is. Not sure what "TRrrrrrrrrrrr" means.

Never saw that log :lol:

Maybe better to find a DR pro to know for sure whats wrong. Don´t let the drive running for long time, that can cause damages in the platters... and that means losing the data forever.

I dont speak samsung so good, but it looks like there is some problem with H3 at the least. Maybe other problems also.

I think there's more to it, apart from head problem.
This is going to be tough!
