Hello,
I have received Seagate Skyhawk Surveillance 10TB for recovery ( Heads Knockings )
These drives are built in such a manner that, they don't have screws for Top Cover.(Welded Top Cover )
Has anybody experimented / opened these drives or done head replacement ?
Thanks

It's welded because it's a helium drive.

Send it for "Free recovery", you can see label. Drive insured, and data recovery free of charge on them. :roll:
