I opened up the 419 drive, No wonder it failed,

hole thru the cover and all three platters! This thing was mounted under a
circuit board and inside a steel case. Everything was very neatly put back
together. Who would go to that much trouble to wreck a drive and why?
Some practical joker who imagined what would be going through the head of
the poor sap (you) that found it that way :)
Either that or somebody wanted a warranty return and figured nobody would
ever go through the trouble of troubleshooting the machine?
