    Hi to all.
    There is a problem with my Seagate Expansion 1TB external drive.
    The disk fell from a height of 10cm, so really small. Since then, the computer can not see it, and when turned on for 10 seconds, it issued short but very fast signals.
    First, I checked the disk on 4 different devices, the same everywhere.
    I decided to unscrew it, hoping that it was just a loose screw.
    I attach a video of how it looks now.

    Anyone have an idea what might be wrong?

    First, remove the disk from the housing and check.

    Post a video as an attachment to the forum.

    So nothing can be done anymore? Even if I take it to the site? Generally, from what I see, there is a rolled up foil under this "needle"

    The diagnosis is probably PLN 600-1000 - recovery is not known but you can probably aim at PLN 2000-4000 - unless more.

    PS. ... and not a service but a specialized recovery company!
    Bottom line: if you don't care about the data or are not very important (worth) then buy a new disk and forget about it!

    Let go of this disk, unless you have data worth a few thousand zlotys there.

    The disk cost about PLN 350, so I don't care about the disk, but when it comes to data - I had everything there.
