Just imagine you save all your valuable data in your laptop and suddenly you found out your harddisk corrupted and the one day you got to know there is no other way to recover it back. How would you feel?
After I posted those two articles the day before yesterday and then start surfing Internet happily, I heard weird noise came from my laptop more precisely from the harddisk as if the sounds like someone farting inside the laptop. After that, my laptop got hang and the farting sounds became louder I mean the weird sound. I thought it’s nothing I force shutdown my laptop and then brought my laptop to my room. My worst nightmare crippling out gently when my laptop hang when booting and then it says
Disk error read
Press CTRL+ALT+DEL to restart
remember I still cool with it because I thought I can find out the problem soon or later.Assuming my harddisk got inner problem, I went to buy a new harddisk 80GB Maxtor with casing which cost me RM200 (luckily there is PC fair going on in my campus). I unscrewed the laptop harddisk and install the new one in my laptop, after that install the laptop harddisk into the external casing hoping it can working as external harddisk. Guess what? It still stubbornly making the farting sound and the harddisk neither detected by my laptop nor my friend’s either. Yeah, you maybe smart enough to think why he just didn’t bring the laptop to the service center? Well, my warranty is already expired so no point bringing there after all they going to charge me for that so better I do it on own first.
At some point I felt like want jump from my room window perhaps I won’t get injured since its just 1st floor because the harddisk is so 'stubborn' from being better. My most precious, valuable, treasured data cannot be recovered because of this undetectable harddisk. My songs, pictures and softwares – hmm at least I can collect from others but how bout my ebooks I WAS had many * For Dummies collection. Those are my treasured data in my laptop and its fate still questionable. I might bring the harddisk to PC shops ask them is there any hope to safe my ‘treasure’.
Actually, I had no idea how my harddisk became unusable, but when I was surf Internet normally (when my harddisk still fine) and then I got an error message saying something like
Your system need to shutdown now, please save your works and log out. Issued by Windows NT/System
Never seen, an error message like that before and I seriously have no idea what’s the f**king wrong with my harddisk. Gonna bang me head on wall if the harddisk is cannot be saved.
What a f**king week for me. Problems after problems what a hard life :(

dude, i u'std ur pain man! I've been down that road... Nothing can make you frustrated like a non-working hard disk while you are still a STUDENT!!!
I had the same prob bout 2yrs ago... my roommate bought this 250 GB harddisk and since he didnt have a pc, it was installed in mine. It had about 50GB of songs, and nearly 200GB of games, movies and TV series. All was lost one day after I heard some farting sounds. After restarting, I discovered thet the PC cant fucking detect the damn hard disk. I gave up after 3 days of trying.
This problem results from a burnout or a short circuit in the pins on the harddisk (the part where it connects to the motherboard, eg. the IDE cable point for PC harddisks). And from my experience, our precious data was lost forever. I hope urs will be still recovered.
Hm..thats explains whats happened actually :(
Yeah, wanna look around wheter is there any chance to fix it..
hmm.. i'm learning sumthing everytime i come here. may be i hv to becareful with my lappy too. its getting old anyway.

Kesh,
I could imagine how you feel, the same sound came from my Samsung External Hard Disk that i bought for a elephant rate, it is gone down to dustbin in 3 weeks but this was caused my cousin bro whom dropped it .
I suggest just to prevent this from get a external hard disk.
My hard drive just crashed too.. two days ago! Had to buy a new one. All the collections and important data gone in the wind! Now, I have learned to backup every single file in my pc.
Yeah, I also learned to back up data periodically..
Damn, it hurts..huhu..till now I cant understand why my harddisk can rosak redi..
