Hi, I have a 2.5" 1TB Samsung hard drive [Model # ST1000LM024] that will not spin up. I know exactly what happened, I plugged in the wrong power supply into the enclosure and I think it blew a diode. There are two similar threads I've found on google that you can look at to get an idea of what I'm trying to do: http://www.techsupportforum.com/forums/f16/help-locating-tvs-diodes-on-my-wd-hard-drive-669949.html and http://www.tomshardware.com/forum/268965-32-samsung-hd103sj. The spinpoint m8 is supposed to have advanced shock protection so I assume that's why it just locked up. However, the drive has no labels on the pcb or guides that show what is what so I can't identify it. Can anyone help with locating the diode I need to remove or whatever other method I can use to get this thing to spin up so I can recover the data?
P.S.- I didn't see a method of attaching photos directly to a post, so I will put up links to them. I labeled the board with all numbers I could find to help.
