Referring to the user manual available at this link:

https://www.manualslib.com/manual/470041/Yamaha-Mcx-1000-Musiccast-Digital-Audio-Server.html

It refers to a HDD slot. It is possible that the hard drive maybe removable without dis-assembly. If that is not possible it is possible to remove the cover and remove the hard drive and run a test on your PC with an adapter to connect to it. It may need to be formatted to enable a test which will delete all of your music I'm afraid. The other alternative is to purchase a new hard drive from internet sellers and fit it in place of the broken one. This will then need reconfiguring and reloading of your music.

Hope that helps.

its a complicated peace of hardware there is nothing available on the web for this sort of Music server. Its better to contact Yamaha for that may be they can give u some resolution about it. These kind of links available which are also not relevant to this i have checked each and everyone.

My advise is to contact yamaha
