I have a Seagate hard drive that my computer doesn't like to boot from anymore. The previous question I asked shows what was wrong with it :
http://www.tomshardware.co.uk/answers/id-2615659/fix-internal-hardrive.html
It seems as if there's power running to it as i can feel the discs spinning (like magnetized), that is when I connect it to the main PSU . However when I connect it to my SATA-USB connector its as if it doesnt get any power at all. The pins are slightly bent as you can see in the images of the other question, so maybe not all the pins are connected ? :/
After a few hours of trying and researching the problem Ive decided to change the PCB on the hard drive. My questions is basically, how exact of a copy do I need the new PCB to be to my current HD PCB ?
Here are the HD specs :
Model: ST1000DM003
PN: 9YN162-306
FW: CC4H
DATE: 13022
SN: Z1D1V66K
If anyone can help me out it'll be much appreciated, also if someone thinks i shouldn't do the swap let me know as Im only doing it as i dont know what else the problem could be
Thank you
