Hi Guys,

I have that black look passport drive 120GB 2.5 inches.
It was working fine one day it started giving constant tickling noise from drive and now it is not detecting even on Windows .

Is their any way to recover data from USB Drive which isn't getting detected ?

Thanks

In case of a hardware failure the disk must be submitted to some professional agency for data recovery which usually costs bomb.
