iPod won't work with my PC or iTunes. I run Windows XP on my PC, and at first, the iPod ran fine. It let me add songs without trouble. But now my PC won't recognise my iPod as an external drive and I can't access it. iTunes recognizes it and syncs up with it but won't let me copy files or libraries from it. I have my complete music library on the ipod. ..A Jones, Watford, UK

Toshiba is a notable manufacturer of 2.5" and 1.8"" for laptop and notebook and its storage technology is now synonymous with the groundbreaking capacities offered by Apple's iPods. In fact Toshiba's 100GB hard drive, the world's smallest, is now finding its way into the latest iPods. Toshiba has also managed to shrink its microdrive to an astonishing 0.85" in diameter, which is now considered to be as small as a massed produced HDD will ever get. Bearing or motor probelms occure when drive spins up with loud grinding/buzzing/rattling/whirring noise , or in worst case it appears to be dead and doesn't spin up at all drive is not found in BIOS. If you attempt to boot up from a Toshiba hard drive or read any data from it you could get "Primary Master Hard Disk Fail" or "No operating system found" or "S.M.A.R.T. Capable But Command Failed" or some other Toshiba hard drive error on boot.

  • A distinctive Toshiba failure is a distinctive whining sound which can be heard just before the drive stops working. It is also common to hear the sound of the motor attempt to spin up, fail, and then retry repeatedly. Toshiba drives can also suffer surface damage caused by the heads being exposed to excessive heat, the heads will begin to adhere to the disk's surface leading to scratches and the manifestation of bad-blocks.
    If I look into the device manager and check the usb hub it's plugged into it say "Unkown device" all my other usb devices work just fine except for this one.

    Another issue typical for Toshiba hard drives is damage to the components on the PCB board. Toshiba Hard Drives are vunerable to overheating and power surges which can lead to a burned out motor or blowing a controller chip on the logic board. If the chips on the PCB burn out you would smell smoke in the air. On next boot your Toshiba hard disk will probably not even spin up. To recover from this type of problem we need to modify a new PCB board with rom information from original drive.

    The Toshiba drive can spin up and the head starts clicking right from the beginning with a regular clicking sound . More times than not this a sign of bad heads, if this is the case it is very important to perform accurate diagnostics and eliminate a chance of possible firmware corruption or PCB failure that sometimes could also cause clicking.

    The last typical Toshiba hard drive issue applies also to all other hard drive makes and models, the problem is called bad sectors. After some period of time the platters were the data is located starts to degrade and bad sectors appear.
