I've seagate Freeagent Go 500GB hard disk
It worked really well all these years so much that I started realying on it by removing another duplicate data as sync would be a problem.
Recently it started giving scan error. I asked to scan and it used to come out well. so I started ignoring it. (There is an option continue without scanning)
Then it stopped access to some folders/file, so I allowed the scan and it would hang at the USN entries
Later I did the chkdsk also which does exact same thing only through DOS CMD. Here it stopped in the index entries itself
Yesterday, I tried to recover as much data as I could thinking it would crash and it did. After a while, it stopped recognizing the drive.
I still have some data to be recovered and it is not getting detected at all. Seatools also does not detect the drive.
I tried connecting to all USB Ports / different laptop, even my smartTV but its not getting detected. It does light up with the white LED design pattern. It used to show up with Dim and bright pattern, maybe some indication, The drive still rotates once connected. In one of the laptop, It even makes a sound of device connected but does not detect/add any drivers, etc
It used to work perfectly alright on the same laptop.
I also eliminated cord / port issue by changing the same.
What can I do next?
