I hope this is a drive you wanted to experiment on and learn, and not a drive that contains important data...

By opening the drive outside of a clean room and moving the actuator arm onto the platters you've dropped you chances of ever getting the data back from 80℅ to about 10℅.

The noise that you can ear is from your data trying to say it's last good bye while it turns intro dust...

Its is a very old Hard Drive, I have Two Exactly same HDD with same problem, I wanted to experiment with one, There not really any data in it, just wanted to know if that can be revived.So I can make the other work.

if it helps it is an 2004 DOM HDD.
