You can match just the second and third in the SN# and that should match. All other parameters should be the same (or very close).

you can use same ST1000LM035 heads. no need to match. only check 2 or 4 heads. if you have 4 heads you should get ST2000LM hard drive.

In my experience with seagate it's first time can I read this, are you sure ?

[Dananjaya]

not all seagate. i told about st1000lm035. also no need head adaptives

[magnetepazzo]

not all seagate. i told about st1000lm035. also no need head adaptives

so a set of heads of an identical model even if with different serial initials it works?

[Dananjaya]

if only a head problem, it works fine. also i have checked st4000lm024.

also no need adaptives. st1000lm035 heads are bit harder than st4000lm024.

st4000lm024 is very fragile.

this will help to others. bec. st4000lm024 is expensive hard.

[magnetepazzo]

it was just a problem with the heads, normally I always chose the donors with the second and third letters of the serial, that's why it seemed strange to me. If you tell me that a disk with a serial is any good enough that it has the same model then you have solved a serious problem for me. Thank You very much

[ddrecovery]

It is not.

[Dananjaya]

this base only my experiment and experiance. if you have any doubt, wait and see other ideas.

first you should chk. how many heads are there. if it has 4 heads you can't easily find 1tb donor. you should get 2tb.

can u upload the pictures of paitent and donor.

sometime i feel your drive has 4 heads.

Last week I started to try to make sense of why some heads would work enough to read, but not write to SA and figured I'd make a log of my findings on my forum (https://www.recoveryforce.com/forums/vi ... f=12&t=537) as I encounter them. Feel free to contribute any concrete findings you have in that thread.

Can you read the specific family number for the 3 head model and the 4 head model? I have only recorded what I have found and verified, in the past week or two.

[Dananjaya]
