I have similar PCB with those capacitors missing. What model board did you find the missing capacitors from?
Ok, i've soldered those two capacitors below the motor chip and now seem that drive is spinning properly, listen to audio file

I've attached the hard drive to sata port of my 64bit Win7 OS, now it is identified in device management but only after "drivers installation" message, which takes about 1 minute since i power on hdd.

I don't know if is normal that it takes so long.
MRT doesn't support this drive, even for surface scan or simple smart checking.
HD Tune is too "stupid" to show the smart properly, crystaldisk is better but isn't able to show thesholds, Victoria is better because is able to show helium level which HD Tune and Crystal can't.

Standing on what Victoria smart is showing, the drive seem to be fine but i haven't found yet a tool which is able to show me sectors on UA.
MRT ---> failed
R-Studio ---> failed
WinHex ---> failed
Victoria ---> failed
I don't know yet if is normal behaving like that when this encrypted type of hdd are attached direcly to sata port, the drive came here with his WD enclosure attached to sata/usb controller which has ASM1151W mcu.
Probably after i'll remount the drive to his usb controller i will be able to access to data, but first i've to find out if controller and power supply are ok. I don't want donor pcb get killed.
