Hello gurus,

I have been trying to use a donor PCB for a WD rom restoration by SA, which didn't work. Now I can't even write the original ROM back to it. The pcb will no longer spin any drives. Any solutions?

Techno mode key
Techno mode key:........................ : Techno key error unexpected error: Drive is not ready

ROM:
Flash Dir reading....................... : Module 0B reading error Data request error - Drive is not ready
ROM reading............................. : HDDs ROM reading error Data request error - Drive is not ready

Firmware version........................ : Module 0B reading error Data request error - Drive is not ready

HDD Readiness timeout (10000 ms)
HDDs RAM reading error - Drive is not ready
HDDs RAM reading error - Drive is not ready

Write ROM
Techno mode key......................... : Techno key error unexpected error: Drive is not ready

It is probably repairable by patching the pcb with external flash memory preloaded with correct ROM image...
I also have one that failed writing and now it is bricked. I will try to patch once i have time
