Help, ATA pbs...
LinusN:
I havce no idea how much it costs. If the drive is spinning, the connectors are probably fine. It might be that the drive is security-locked... Right now I can't remember how to determine if it is, but I can find that out for you.
mio1984:
Yes, it would be nice if I could be able to unlock the hard drive myself !
Thank you very much !
LinusN:
Could you tell me what happened before the ATA error occurred?
If it is locked, you can go here to read about how to unlock it:

Good luck!
mio1984:
It was plugged on 230V but not charging (why, I don't know).
I've tried to read data on my archos from a remate computer over my netwok but hard drive has failed to spin because of low batteries...it was making the same noise as when you shut it down while hard drive spinning...
I will try to follow instructions to unlock my box !
Thank you very much !
LinusN:
That sounds like a situation where it might have locked the drive.
If it wasn't charging, you might have accidentally enabled the "deep discharge" option.
