Your drive has a stuck motor. If there is no data of value, send it back for warranty. If the data is worth anything to you, send it to a data recovery professional for an assessment "BEFORE" you try DIY tricks that will likely make things worse.

You simply can't connect a terminal and unstuck a motor on your drive. First because there's no terminal...

Send in back for RMA and get a new one. If you screw around with this then you are out all the way around. You will not have a drive, data, or anything but a mess on your hands. Like everyone said this is not an easy one to do.

But if he does that, there is no warranty.
Also hitting a 30EZRX will result in drilling a hole in water.
