Total waste of money. Your more likely going to kill the drive completely in your DIY attempts.

2. Drive spins up
3. Access LED blinks (LED on/off interval ~0.25s)
4. After about 10-12 seconds, drive emits a single click + audible "chirp" (sounds like actuator being forcefully reset or set to landing zone)
5. Access LED goes steady again
7. After about 45 full seconds or so, #4 happens, rinse lather repeat #5-7. The access LED interval also sometimes varies.

If the drive has a physical problem then it's a loss -- there's nothing I can do about it (I do not open drives under any circumstance) and my colleague can't afford a data recovery company (I've gotten several quotes from different companies, all estimate US$650 or higher). So I'm his best bet, barring physical damage.
