Heads definitely bad, could be media damage.

You will need a pro for this one, needs to be opened in a clean room/clean bench and properly examined


I would not power this drive on any more if the data is valuable.



Regards,

Data recovery done! The bottom heads stucked at the begining of
parking ramp.
I turn spindle and move heads on plates, keep turning and move heads
back to parking ramp.
