My external drive mybook 4tb suddenly stopped booting ,not spinning or getting detected on my computer and LED not flashing .
i took the internal disk out and connected it directly to the mobo and it got detected but asks to initialize and i cant access my data
after some searching i found that the problem could be solved if i swap the bridged pcb
my pcb number is 4061-705149-000 rev 04p
the question is do i have to find a pcb with the exact same number -cuz i cant find it- or can i use any one

would this one from amazon work ?
https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0131SYPM6/re ... UTF8&psc=1
it looks exactly like mine just different numbers and it costs only 20 $
4061-705210-A00 Rev. AB

i also found others on ebay but they r too expensive starting at 75$ so im lost which to buy

If the data is important, contact forum member mr_spokk

He’s in Gothenburg and can easily sort this for a reasonable fee :-)

If data isn't important, you might try to follow this:

You're having a hard time because you're searching the sticker number, not the actual board number which is printed in green right into the PCB. The number you're looking for is 4060-705149-000 (probably REV A, but the REV rarely ever matters). You should search the 4060 number, not the 4061.

There's a couple of them on ebay for around $40: https://www.ebay.com/itm/4060-705149-00 ... SwEEBaKGT-

No, using a different board number isn't likely to work. Probably will use a different encryption chip.
