Hello gurus,

I have a WD scorpio drive with this " ring ", any chance to recover the data ?

The drive can't spin up, I thought it was a "common" head stick.

But I found this.

I can do that, if you are interested.

Janos

Difficult but not impossible. Assuming some data is lost for sure.

how about others platters condition? 2 platters?

Thanks for your responses gurus,


Thank you Mr.Janos for trying to help, but the case has been closed and the customer refused to recover his data because I told him : that will cost you more than a new drive : 1200 L.E = Approx 200 USD.And he shouted : I can buy 4 new drives with this amount.Then I said : OK, go ahead.
The FDB motor wasn't even try to spin up because of this "ring", and the heads couldn't move from it's parking area too.


I know Mr.BlackST it's a difficult issue, and I prepared myself to work on it. But the customer was F**kin idiot.


1 platter and 2 heads.
Thank you Mr.Amarbir for your hint.

Thank you all for your responses.

I appreciate your help.
