Hi Digiters,
I have a Seagate SATA barracuda 7200.11 HDD. One fine day, the BIOS was unable to detect my HDD and I checked it on my friend's PC. The diagnosis was probably the HDD had electrical fault rather than mechanical as I never heard noises during its lifespan.

A air blower by black and berry. Its available in Nehru Place at around 300Rs.. No warranty. I tried it and it got heated up in a matter of minutes. After using it for 10 mins., its motor started giving rumbling sounds. Buy Compressed Air cans but not available in Nehru Place...
