Not detected by anything, hooked it up via usb directly, and still didn't work. The drive spins up and everything. Has not yet been opened, but I do plan on trying to repair the drive myself sometime. 500GB 7200.10 Barracuda Stopped working when I accidentally tripped over the drive. I'm hoping someone could diagnose the drive simply from the sound. Is it the heads? The platters? Thanks, let me know if anything else is needed... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FTWcdBCCgv8

The BIOS detected the primary HDD not installed either by auto detect or user manual detect. The desk top ran fine (Win XP Pro + SP2 as the O/S on Pentium 3); although it has shut down since a secondary HDD (used one) installed (as slave) onward. The shut down repeated several counts and by each time the PC ran length got shorter and shorter. The warning message gave off suggested to re-install the O/S. I did it after removing the slave HDD, but the installation could not be completed as the PC shut off at the same installation phase while Windows XP makes configuration. This was repeated in circles over again. Finally I found out that the primary HDD has not been detected, even I reboot from the CD-ROM by Win XP Pro + PS2 installation CD. This forced me tried to check the BIOS and the result was that the BIOS detected no primary HDD installed. I downloaded a free software called RegCure by use another PC from http://www.errornerd.com/error.php?seed=Bios-Error (thanks to the Owner) and saved it on a floppy diskette which was put in the Floppy Drive while the PC starting-up though it didn?t work to the problem for me as the PC did not allow running the software at start-up. What will be a solution to it? Thanks for any possible help. Vincent, 11 June 09.

I have twin Seagate Barracuda 7200.10 Hard Drives in an external harddrive. (LaCie)
At first it would click in and out of the main computer, you know recognized, not recognized, and the drive icon on mycomputer would appear and disappear. Finally it just stopped appearing. I can't believe BOTH drives died simultaneously. I opened the enclosure, turned it on, and I get the main blue light, but also a red one. Putting a stethscope to them, I can hear them, but the speed up, and then slow down over and over. And what does that red light mean?

As the title says, spins up then spins down and parks. Can here the click locking in the heads armatures. Was working great in a Maxtor 4Plus enclosure but then just died. I replaced the PC controller board to no avail.
Any ideas would be helpful. It's a backup drive from within an external enclosure. Thought that is what the backup drive was for.
Thanx in advance.
External hard drives are quite prone to this but it can also affect internal too to a lesser degree The clicking you hear is referred to as the...
