Hi

DCM: HBCVJBBB
PCB: 2060-701499-000 REV A
second PCB (on sticker): 2061-701499-500 AA

According to PC3000 head 0 and 1 are defect. One of the heads was stuck and i got i lose without damaging the platter but i think the heads were damaged (not visible under microscope)

Heads are not good. Heads 0 and 1 are probably defect. When i do a headmapping in RAM with pc3000 UDMA the headstack make different kind of noices but nothing is been read. So i guess the most effective solution will be a complete headstack with a donordrive and exact same specifications.
