It was supposed to be a Maxtor One Touch 500gig external hard drive. with SATA interface
but when hubs opened it up (broke the shell) when the usb connection failed the manufacturer said Seagate. which i guess doesn't make much difference.
The issue is this. whatever happened to it he hooked it up using the USB and it beeped every 5-10 seconds. so he tried to break the shell off take it from the power supply and connect. thats when he found its has a SATA interface. ok so when he got the IDE to SATA connector to hook up to his comp same thing, beep noise every 5-10 seconds. is it well and truly dead?
If so this is sad because there are pictures on there of which there are no physical copies and are very important. otherwise the rest of the programs on there are replaceable but the pics are not
honestly i refuse to accept that it is dead..
