Question rigid disk - size

[jpatterer]

Hi. I have a hard disk wd enterprise -class WD1003FBYZ of 1 terabyte I have used it for 8500 hours without failures and one day it failed and now it only shows 33 megabyte and I would like to be able to access its content but I can't find how to do it

Most electronics work great. Right up until the moment they die.
And they will all die, some sooner rather than later.

This is what backups are for.

Is it still under warranty?

Could this be the problem?

GigaByte BIOS bug results in loss of 1TB capacity:

It is out of warranty. and the data is not so important, but I would like to know if someone had had that problem and if they could solve it or simply recycle that disk
thank you

I have already tried it on several computers and the problem continues
thank you

Use HDAT2, SeaTools, or HDD Capacity Restore Tool (all in my FAQ).
