So, the next question is, what can I do with this? I have a case I purchased to house an old internal hard drive so that I could have it on my desktop, essentially "converting" it to an external drive. After removing the screws from the back end, I can pull it from the front end and the entire drive slips out of the metal case. Thank! AprilĪh, I figured out how to remove the drive. Any help? Or anyone know what I could do to try and fix the power problem without removing the drive? I tried another cord (I have another one of these drives), but that didn't work. It's a very slim, smoth, metal case, no hiding places. Looks like a permanent installation but someone got it in there so I must be able to get it out! There are no other screws visible on this case, no rubber feet or anything like that. There are two screws on the back end of the case which, when removed, allow me to remove that end panel and see the drive inside but I have no idea how to remove it. Chatting with their support, they said I can try and they will still replace it (they don't "punish" customers for trying to recover their data before returning the drive). I want to take the drive out of the Prestige case and put it in another case I have so that I can power it up and grab the data - then I'll send the Prestige back to Iomega for a replacement. As far as I know there was no "event" that caused the problem, it just worked one day and not the next. Iomega will replace the drive but I need the data on the drive and that is up to me to "recover". I have an Iomega Prestige 1Tb external hard drive that won't power up.
