    Sorry I’m not sure what you mean. Yes it’s an HDD. A USB plug-in one in a non-user-serviceable enclosure. I can’t (without completely destroying it) get the HDD itself out. And I’m not sure what it would even mean to put it into a working HDD. The broken HDD itself is the problem, I think.

        I can’t recall the exact model, but it’s some form of Seagate Expansion Desktop, sort of like the ones shown here. Mine was 1.5 TB, IIRC.

        Thanks for that link. Wish there was a bot to translate links back into normal YouTube videos like there’s one to send you off to that other site, but it’s easy enough to manually change the URL I suppose. Anyway, doing that is way beyond my skills, and I’m not sure the data would be worth paying a professional to do that either. I can’t imagine that comes cheap.
