Looks like you have spin error. Maybe no spin at all? Maybe sticktion? Thats just speculation on my part.

Most likely it's a sticktion, agree with Mr.Alexii.

Can you hear the drive spin up ?

Somewhere i read about shorting pins for ES2 drives.
But, the PCB layout was different.
Is this drive ST91000430AS (2.5") belong to ES2 series?

damaged SA area!

The heads are slowing down the spinning (phisically) because of surface problem, and the drive can't reach the correct RPM.

I have this issue too on one drive. (partially recovered)

I thought about dropped drive. If so = pack imbalance and reading loss.

I have this drive and same condition.

Only the hum is really an internal beep.
I guess the critter ain't spinning up then.

So PBC fix is out, it will have to be a head swap - yuck!

There goes a chunk of $$$-

Anyone found that the head arms could be fixed?

OK - looks normal enough, no etching on top platter

Arm however is sitting on plate not in housing.
I guess if I spin it up I will see if new head is needed
or what.

Certainly Stucktion.
However, while the drive behaves better.
Allowing for /2
and Z down.
the U gets another Spin Error.
So I'll try one other thing and then order head.

Unless a clue or tip is ready made in your mind...
