jacked up Seagate 2TB Barracuda HDD

[hyzzle]

ok i have had this 2TB barracuda drive for a few years but never had any problems until i put it in a synology NAS and I got a report that the drive had crashed. I was out of town for about 2 months so i just had my wife power down the NAS till i got back. I pulled the drive out and hooked it up to a pc to try and recover the data. Windows will see the disk, but it is listed as "Disc 0" unknown for size and not initialized. when i try to initialize it I have selected MBR and i get the error "the system cannot find the file specified" and when i select GPT i get the error "the specified disk is not convertible because the size is less than the minimum size required for GPT disks." I have tried to go into disk part and clean it, but it does nothing, i cannot format it because there is no volume. The disk spins up fine and there is no abnormal sound coming from it. Does anyone have a suggestion of something to try next?

Sounds like it died, I would RMA it or buy a new disk.
Try downloading SeaTools and have it check the disk as well.
