Dropped a External Hard Drive

paulmartin1966 · May 25, 2014

Hi I've got a Lenovo C345 Windows 8 All-in-one PC & I've also got a separate Seagate Barracuda 7200.11 which I dropped on the floor accidentally & which is making a clicking noise on its Actuator Arm when I put it in my WinStars Sata Hard Drive Docking Station Combo & plug it in & connect it to the Computer. I've took it to so many places to try & be fixed but I really need my important data from this drive that clicks. Please please help me

You dropped it
Connected, it clicks
Take it out of the enclosure, and into a docking station, it still clicks
Take it to a tech place (?) and they still have the same issue.

At this point, you have 2 options:
1. Send it off to an expensive data recovery company (which may or may not work)
2. Get the data from your backup, and toss that drive.
