Is it possible that inside certain harddisks motion detectors are placed?
I have a harddsk which works fine but as soon you move the drive (powered on
and connected to pc)
the head sounds as it wants to go in park, if i leave the drive alone it
just works fine.
IDE and power cable are ok.
Not relevant for a repair but plain curiosity, i would expect it on a laptop
disk but not a desktop.
