Hello people,

I'm looking for a donnor hard drive for swapping platters.
The heads were blocked on platters (ambulance sound), I freed them but now I head a scratching noise and an other stange noise when platters stop turning (it seems that the axe or motor is little broken).

Here is my disk's specs :
WD10TMVV - 11A27S0
R/N : 701675
Date : 24 Oct 2009
DCM : EHBVJBBB
S/N : WXE0C7982850

I've found a similar disk with DCM EHBVJHBB (link), do you think that it will be good for heads swapping ?
Also, for platters swapping or (motor + heads) will be this one suitable ?

I may be wrong, do you think that my analysis correct ?

Thank you for your help,
Alex

My goal is to learn. Data recovery is not the main purpose for the moment :-)

If we didn't see this sort of butchery virtually every day, I'd have said it was a joke too :-(

As spildit says, the scratching noise was almost certainly the broken heads scraping your data off the platters.

RIP data :rip:

Use the donor, scrap the other one. No hope of fixing it or recovering data now.

To answer your question about the donor, this one: http://www.ebay.com/itm/WD10TMVV-11A27S ... 23471c93a4 should be good for either head replacement or platter swap. But it really doesn't matter now that you powered it on with damaged heads. The data now resides in the air filter of the drive.

Hello Alex,

We do have suitable donor drives, but since your goal is practice, you can just buy 1TB damaged passport drive to perform head or platter swap.

Thanks for your answers.
I was reading (here) that the 6th character is associated with head stack in DCM for old HDD models.
Taking this into consideration, don't you think that this model is better than this one ?

HardDrivesForSale, I checked on your website, but I don't see a very closing model to mine. Which model are you talking about ?
Maybe, 750GB are enough suitable for this operation ?

Thank you again,
Alex
