I have a WD Caviar Green 3TB drive (with 2.2TB of data) that was in a WD Mybooklive NAS enclosure. Its since decided to not spin up anymore.
I removed it from the case and plugged it into a PC to test the fault. With an ear to the top of the drive, when plugged in, it make 3 quiet chirp noises a pause and 3 more, then nothing. Im hoping someone also had a dud drive with a different problem and perhaps the PCB board it good and I could swap it to try. Dont want to open it up yet.
I have a WD RED 3TB ready to ghost everything over to if i can get it to spin up.
If you have a Caviar Green 3TB that i could steal the PCB from that would be good. Will pay for courier etc.
Thanks
