pretty sure it's a motor failure on the spin - has slowed down over the course of a week to completely useless. I have not tried to open it, but from listening to it, it seems pretty clear.

• Thanks for your efforts...

System had been experiencing random failures for a couple of weeks. HD was checked with Hitachi GST Drive Fitness Test with a report of no errors. Did replace MB cooling equipment and a video card which seemed to fix the system. Three weeks later the system had a random crash and upon re-boot HD was not found in BIOS. Further investigation showed drive was not spinning up. Tried drive in three different computers as a slave and result was the same, no spin up and no BIOS recognition.

• Dear Sirs,
  I'd like to let you know, that I got all data back and sincerely thank you for a wonderful job you provided...
