I tried everything, i plugged it in two different pc's, one with lubuntu and one with windows 10 and its not recognised at all by both machines, not even by the BIOS, i also tried a usb to sata adapter and nothing.

Its not making any scratching noise but there are some faint noises so its getting power and all.

Also i could not find any firmware anywhere on the internet, Hitachi doesn't provide them ,WD Dashboard doesn't detect it ALTHOUGH ITS LISTED ON THEIR WEBSITE.

The drives specs HGST H2T320854S7 Travelstar Z5K320 Series 320GB 5400RPM SATA 6Gb/s 8MB Cache (512) 2.5-inch Hard Drive.

Any help would be appreciated .
