Jackey Force · May 2, 2015

Hey! I got an awful problem and that is whenever I turn on my desktop I receive an awful hard disk clinking sound and my pc won't boot it stuck in 'Verifying DMI Pool Data' just after the GIGABYTE logo and I did a very stupid mistake, that to inspect the clicking sound of my HDD i opened it and i require to break the seal I was too aggressive that time to play GTA V that I opened my HDD, I realize that I did a stupid mistake even but I think I even won 't get any warranty because the seal is broken and its 5 or 6 yeaers OLD WD Cavair Blue 500GB Serial ATA Drive. Now my brothers can I repair my this drive or if i need to buy a new HDD please suggest me a HDD around 47$ [in india it is 3000INR] Please suggest me a hdd or tell me any method to work out with thisdrive becauase there was several important DATA. Thanks in advance and yeah! sorry if i sound stupid

The clicking sound signifies a drive failure - it's typically caused by the read/write armature slamming against the spindle.

Do NOT remove the cover from a hard disk drive; by doing this, you've effectively destroyed the drive; send it in to a professional recovery service if you must have the data off of it, or throw it out and buy a new drive. You've voided the warranty by opening the drive as well.

Your data is gone unless you are willing to pay a lot of money to a professional service who still might not recover your data. This is why you need a back up
