What am I up against (clicking drive with amnesia)?

[Jidis]

Spildit,

If I'm reading those instructions correctly, why the reading of the good drive's ROM if I'm just going to put the bad drive's PCB on it (or do I also dump the read ROM into the bad drives PCB)?

Thanks!

No go again I guess Spildit. The "bad" PCB doesn't really do anything out of the ordinary on that 250G, other than showing as size=0 in the BIOS, which I guess is normal for a mismatch. It spins up to the usual healthy faint mechanical noises, then just settles rather than spinning back down.

Sorry it took me a little while to get that stuff back up and check.

Appreciate It!

So, after a few weeks, Data-Medics was proven to be correct with his analysis.

Well it is nice to know that it was further narrowed down to that rather than just tossing in the towel.

Thanks to all for helping!
