				Hallo All :
 
 
new guy here - and Mac user - contact with Seagate - HD covered under warranty - but not firmware issue am told - firmware SN04- one day worked - next day no - still spins just does not recognize - or boot in 2 different computers and hard case 
 
 
wish to get the data off drive before I send in for warranty -  any one care to suggest something ?  if still spins is a good sign yes?
 
Seagate Cuda' ES.2 500 Gb ST3500320NS  s/n 9QM0FX7T
 
 
hoping to do this myself as money is lean here - if possible 
 
 
cheers in advance |

				hallo sunnydreamspace:
 
 
cheers for the reply -  HD spins and sounds normal for about 5 seconds - then silent and spins 
 
 
inside other Mac machine or hard case - as above sounds like its reading for 5 sec - then just spins silent - neither recognizes 
 
 
as mentioned -  I am low on funds so at now looking to see what all i can do to get the datat
