Fixing A Mechanically Failed Hard Disk
A working hard disk suddenly goes undetected. Just don’t worry. There are ways to solve your problem. The best way would be freezing the hard disk. Leave the hard disk in the freezer over night. Take it out in the morning, wait for sometime for it to get back to the room temperature. Now try running it again. Sounds stupid rite, but it works most of the time (almost 75%).As worn out parts fails to connect, freezing expands these mechanical parts and getting back warm makes it to get into contact again making it to work. Don't trust it for a long time. Better take a back up soon. Make hay while the sun shines.
