How to fix a broken hard drive Beeping noise or clicking RECOVER GET DATA BACK FOR FREE! BEST TRICK

hello everybody this is Abraham with Nosh computer services and today I'd like to show you a hard drive that I think has uh heads stock on a platter uh the reason I know that is from the noise that it makes if we plug it in you can hear the beeping noise that's basically the motor is trying to start the platters and it can't and it's most likely because uh the heads are stuck um on a platter it does happen occasionally I have seen it uh it could also be that the bearing is stuck uh or SE seized and platters are not turning you'd get the same noise so for this one we would need to open this hard drive now this hard drive does not have much of anything that's important on it so we don't have to use any clean room or anything and uh I'm sure it's going to work uh once we get the heads unstuck so we'll just take the screws out there's one more screw hidden somewhere beneath the label just kind of feel it and get under it okay we on let get a screwdriver here get it pride open all right so okay as we can see the heads are stuck on a platter um I'm not sure why this would happen but I have seen this happen several times so how do we get the heads off the platter and into the park position okay the best thing to do is turn the platter so let's see we can use our crossy screwdriver and it's not going to like it OHA all right so the heads are off most likely this hard drive will start and uh it'll most likely work there is some uh dust particles on drive on the platters um I'm not too concerned about those because once the hard drive starts spinning uh it'll centrifugal force will get rid of those uh particles and uh before the head actually starts moving onto the hard drive now heads do seem to be stuck on a hard drive as if they're glued um reason for that is because the head surface is polished extremely smooth hard drive surface is polished extremely smooth uh it's uh if you have two surfaces that are very smooth they get stuck on each other all right we'll check on our computer we'll plug in our adapter say that to you B all right and as you can see the hard drive is mounting I don't hear the beeping noises there it is scanning we'll just cancel that folder View there you go the hard drive is working okay uh do not be afraid to open hard drive if it's uh if it's not critical I'd say if if you have a million dooll business uh that's on a hard drive and uh it's probably best to leave it to people who can give you some kind of insurance um I've done this so many times uh it seems to be working just fine but if you only have personal stuff and if it's while you're opening it or or while you're moving the heads off the platter you accidentally damage them you're not going to hit your head over with whatever and say why did I do this you probably want to take it to a lab um but if you have a hard drive that's making that noise you haven't used it for God knows how long and uh it's just something on there that you might want to use well go ahead and open it you're not going to damage it I've seen some people on YouTube saying that you have to have uh these screws to specific torque uh I think it's baloney as long as you get them f um the hard drive will work so as you can see the hard drive is working in fact I can put it back into a computer and it'll work just fine um I do not trust opened hard drives if I have opened it I would never use it as a primary hard drive I could use it as a backup hard drive um basically if it if it contains a second copy of something that I have I'm okay you know I can use this hard drive but uh overall maybe for testing purposes the hard drive is okay um maybe [Music] for um playing purposes but never ever as a primary hard drive that runs your computer so once you open the hard drive be sure it will not work the same as it did uh when it was assembled at the fact Factory um or um you know brand new hard drive so I hope this was informative and helpful and uh as always have a good day
