    Storage Solutions Estimated data recovery charge.

    Use something like R-Studio, make an image of the HDD and do recovery from that. Since the HDD is getting detected, this would be the cheapest and the best.

    Seagate Backup Plus External Not Getting Detected - Help!

    Thanks mate, my point exactly. attach power/usb and then after 5 secs remove the power and move the HDD slightly - if you feel an intertia pull due to the rotational, it means the HDD is spinning up. In this case, shuck the HDD and connect to SATA directly - assuming this is seagate, will...

    Seagate Backup Plus External Not Getting Detected - Help!

    No, that sound will not play if there is only current flowing, it indicates that something is interfacing using the USB protocol. It may only be the controller for all we know, but thats a start point.

    Activating Windows on a refurbished PC

    Yes, but when life gives no options, what to do, change machine or kill SSD? IMO XP to 7 was the biggest change in terms of device support etc Neither did I, just saying that nothing is sacred, always something which was supposed to be the cornerstone of Windows has changed over time.

    Please post the temps if possible. And after sales service? This is not something that we would replace that easily. I have the Helios4 (2 working + 1 dead) and know how much of issues are there with ASSC.

    Activating Windows on a refurbished PC

    As someone who has purchased nearly 50+refurbs and some with 4GB, I do know what i am talking about. Even if you put a 7200rpm HDD, Windows 10 can be absolute crap when you need to work with MS Office apps. I hope you do know how product lifecycles work. Windows 10 is not getting any new...

    Activating Windows on a refurbished PC

    If used in office, stick to Windows Pro as that is what you are licensed for. LTSC variants are meant for specific tasks devices only. Not general purpose work etc. Plus there is always risk when getting stuff from 3rd party sites. Just upgrade the HDD to an SSD - this will be more than...

    Seagate Backup Plus External Not Getting Detected - Help!

    Freezing method did not work, so that a no go. Another method is to disable automount on Windows, connect the HDD and try a recovery software like R-Studio for data recovery.
