Problem With Seagate Free Agent 1000GB

I have a problem with my new Seagate FreeAgent Desk 1000GB, P/N: 9ZC2AG-500, S/N: 2GEYMJP8. Basically the unit was working fine for a while, but suddenly after a long holiday it is not recognized by the CPU as an external drive. The power seems to be on and off, it also gives unusual clicking noise. It was recognize only once after being plugged into another CPU; however, most of the data are missing – though it says that the The unit is stored in vertical (standing) position on its stand. Please advice.

Hello:
Please try our external drive troubleshooter - http://www.seagate.com/www/en-us/support/troubleshooting_assistance/

If the troubleshooter doesn't resolve your problem, could you please post the report from Microsoft's UVCView utility?

Thanks!
