I couldn't send the video but yes it is an ssd.

SSD's don't have moving parts to make sound. My guess that it is an SSHD (a regular hard drive with a small amount of solid state flash acting as a buffer/cache). By that sound... it's hooped. You could try the freeze trick but my luck with that is 1 in 10. -- Sean

Hey guys,
When my friend game me his failed hd it is an SSD.
System sees it but can't open
See attached video for the sound it is making.
Hope 16GB isn't too big.
I know odds are low but just have to ask if anyone has any ideas.
Freezing SSDs is not a thing correct? Sure sounds like moving parts to me. Never troubleshot an SSD before.
