HI guys so I just stumbled upon this Black Elite 360 (Zephyr), I think this revision released sometime during April 2007, but I'm not positive.
What's the earliest Elite Zephyr you guys have stumbled across, and do you think this one has a fairly early mfg date?
Hi guys I don't know if how I phrased the title is accurate, but I also included a video of the issue I'm asking about. I'm using the word loose because I believe that drives with this symptom probably encountered an impact, or fall at some point in their life. This is just speculation though, I'm not certain on it.
I have a couple other 2.5 sata hdds that have this issue, and when powered off the heads can be heard moving around when shaking it. I don't know if this is normal or not, because all the drives that have this symptom appear fine in Crystal disk. Not all of my 2.5 sata drives do this, just some. For example, my Western digital drives do not have this issue, but this hitachi, a toshiba, and an older samsung all do. (These tested good in Crystal disk despite this)
What would cause this, and is this an issue that affects the functionality of the drive?
