Hello,
I have an external Seagate Barracuda 7200.10 (500 GB), and it has stopped working.
Here's the story:
One time I checked on it and found out it had shut down. When I disconnected it / reconnected it, it made a series of beeps and shut down.
So I opened it and found out that there was a little burn spot on the the little ribbon cable inside.
I decided to buy a SATA / USB adapter so I could use internal drives as external ones and so I could retrieve the data safely from it.
But the same happened when I removed the drive from it's cover and used it like an internal drive with the SATA / USB adapter. It didn't wanna power up after many beeps.
I can provide screenshots.
Thank you very much.
