This morning, I came in and powered up the Link Station. The drive was making a periodic click sound, and incidentally, was not coming up at all. After a restart of the unit, The click sound has been resolved, but the drive still does not come up. Eventually, I noticed the fan on the back of the unit is not operating. Is this a drive failure or possibly a power supply failure? Can I have a local tech remove the drive and retrieve the data, while waiting for a replacement unit or part?
We are down.
Thanks
