I was switching HDs and the one I use regularly suddenly died after booting
up. After closer look, it does not power itself at all. I cannot feel the
vibration and heat a HD usually generates. Of course, it does not show up
on BIOS either. I never had any problem before this happens. That leads me
to believe it's the power portion of it goes bad that my data is there
fine. I think my drive is still under warranty. WD probably has 3 year
warranty and my drive is only 1.5 years. I don't want to send it back and
wait for it to come back. My main system and software and some personal
data are all on there.

Does anyone know if there is way to fix it by myself?

TIA,


Changhsu Liu
