I have a German-manufactured Icy Box, 1.8" external case with 500GB SATA HD. I have had it for 16 months and never experienced any problems, but about a month ago it started emitting a loud rattling noise every time I switch it on, which would last for a few minutes and then stop. Since two days ago it doesn't work any more when connected to the TV - first i was getting just a blue start-up screen with a message "No Media Detected" in the top left hand corner,and the LCD on the Icy Box showing the message "No HDrive". Since yesterday nothing appears, the TV screen just flickers and nothing showing on the LCD either. I have checked all the cables (electrical plus 3 other jacks that go into the back of the TV).

The Icy Box still works when plugged in the PC via USB - the computer recognises it fine and all the files are in order. Therefore, at the moment I can only use the icy box as an external data storage, but not as a media player as well.

Any idea what may be causing this problem and how to fix it? Any help/response will be greatly appreciated.
