Toshiba 3 TB Ext. head Problem

February 15th, 2019, 16:55

Hi there.
Hdd fall down aprx. 40cm and not booting. When i plug it disk was beeping 4 times(head sound) and stopping spin. I searched and i watched some videos. They were telling "maybe head stacked".
Lost is lost and i decide to open hdd case.
Really head was stack between disks. Somehow i released the head( too kindly) and pluged the HDD.
However head is always making the same movement but not booting/starting.
Windows can recognize usb ext. mass storege but not listing on disk management.
On the other hand, i canceled usb board from disk and pluged it directly to motherboard no response again.
Here is the video
