Hi, my Hitachi HDT722525DLAT80 fell off a table and now it makes this regular klack sound. Also it doesnt reach the speed for the computer to be able to recognize it. I opened it and somehow this very fragile part that actually reads the data from the disc seems to be broken and the arm that holds it scratches the disc slightly. What can I do? Is it fixable or can I get the data in any other way? Thanks very much, help is much appreciated!!!

My 1TB Hitachi Deskstar failed in my apple Time capsule. I think the sata power board has gone. Can this be replaced? And where can I buy the part
