This hard drive is dead. Yes, it is very dead. Nothing can be done to save its life. All it does is spin the discs and make ticking sounds as the arms try to move. :(
Please comment if you would like to see more videos like this. And no, I did not kill it.
This baby has rythm! 1 in a milion hard drive xD R.I.P.

Consider yourself lucky, that's a musically-inclined HD. Very rare.

Well by opening the hard disk to the elements like airborn debris...it is pretty much dead now. If it had a chance to be saved, those chances were destroyed when you opened it up.

I had this same drive and it did same noise! I had another drive with a good pcb but bad heads, replaced the board from the other drive and quickly copied data off and it was all fine!

Try giving it a light tap on the side with a hammer. That sometimes frees the read head.
