WD800JD-00JNC0 can't start

July 30th, 2008, 14:41

Hi!

I have a WD800JD-00JNC0 which can't start (makes some clicks and stops).
BIOS can't recognize it (it is seen as SABRE).
Do I have any chance to get it working w/o heads replacement?

Thanks for any help.

To put it very simply, very likely No. Tools to fix are more expensive than price of recovery.

Anyway it's beyond user. Ask a pro for an evaluation.
