that I think about it, I recently also had a fairly new Western Digital
drive suddenly no longer be seen by any Windows PC and I really need
many of the files on it.?? Can anybody here tell me if drive
manufacturers offer recovery services? I ask this since I saw a post
somewhere that Seagate offers some sort of file recovery via cloud
storage.
Recovery services tend to be expensive. You'll need to decide just how
much the data is worth to you. Seriously.
If the problem is "external" (a problem with the circuit board attached to
the drive), then repair or replacement of that board may work.
Try DriveSavers
If the problem is "internal", then you will not like what it costs.
But, NSA could almost certainly recover your data.
