Maxtor 6L200R0 disk Drive DOESN'T SPIN
After recovery: Thank you for your services! I appreciate very much all of your efforts in getting my data files.

IBM IC25N040ATCS04 laptop disk Failed in BIOS or CMOS. Drive spins up on power on but fails to be recognized by bios. No head slamming noises. Failed one morning when house was cool. That afternoon, tried again and booted fine. Wrote off some data to CD but had a system hang when connecting to a large backup drive. Had to power down and it has never booted since. I was mfg engineer for HP laptops and have recovered many drives myself. Even opening them sometimes. I uncovered the hidden screw, thinking I might open this one, but decided against it - It has NOT been opened. I suspect a firmware chip on the board has failed.
After recovery: Thank You very much for what appears to be a near perfect recovery.
Do not forget to remove the bracket and a connector bar from the hard drive, if they used on your model. Keep them for the new drive installation.
