WD Caviar Blue 500G IDE HDD does not spin up; two days ago it spun up and read fine, then I got a message saying 'CHKDSK cannot read RAW files', now it won't even spin. Can I repair this thing cost-effectively?
I should mention that this drive has been moving from machine to machine2 to bench to enclosure to machine3, et cetera, for a couple of days as I try to resurrect several old machines.
