This hard drive has my Xbox files on it,in which i need,and i have already taken it apart and all in a clean environment,and it started by making a buzzing noise,and then when i got the head unstuck,it just started to make the loud screeching noise,and i really want those files back,and i don't have enough money to have someone recover the data.Thanks i am really stuck on what to do. And i have already tried to fix the head,by relieving the stress on it from the platter,but that didn't seem to work.

That loud screeching noise means that the heads are no longer riding on a cushion of air, but instead are touching the disk directly, physically wiping away your data. The drive is a total loss at this point.

When your HDD makes loud noice usually it haves serious mechanical problems as bad sectors problems with the motor or another problems with mechanical parts.

better try to do a backup Here is a way to do a backup of Xbox.

Seriously do a backup NOW(If you have the chance).
