External disk failure ?!

<< < (3/5) > >>

Gamezertruth:
It seems that my external disk works but the problem is that my external disk give me sound like Tak Tak and I've hit my external disk And then had worked for a while and took some files from it, but after several other strikes' my external disk has stopped and looked like there is something stuck there inside!

Shane:
That is called the click of death. The chip on the drive that controls the arm is going out and what you here is it hitting inside the drive.

Gamezertruth:
But this happened before because my external disk has fallen from my hands to the ground immediately!
After trying to run the external disk many times it seems that those attempts failed and then was forced to hit the hard drive to force this thing to work! But I do not know what to do right now!

Shane:
It could always be the chip board inside the case that the drive plugs into. You would have to remove the drive from the case and put it in  your system to test that.

Otherwise, again, this is a hardware problem not software ware. Even when it works for a min then stops the hardware is still bad :wink:
