Almost certainly frozen spindle, like rchadwick says.

Common on these.

Not a DIY fix by ANY means!!

Spindle seized . The cause : shock or drive dropped or severe overheat leading to "grip" , regardless what the user said :D (only in a few case it was simple mechanical failure). Prepare to spend $$$$$$$ (or €€€€€€€€ or change the symbol to your currency).

A client of mine recently had one of these dealt with by Attingo in Austria after a couple of companies over here could not do it.
