I Will Suggest Once You Tell Me ,
Have You Ever Done This Before ?

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.

oh yes friend, i'm not beginner

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

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?

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.

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

It is not.

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.

hi friend Icoughey

i appriciate you great info on your forum. but sometime we can 100% judge about st1000lm hard drive.
according to your forum wbz has 2 heads. but i can show you wbz 3 heads hard drive.(physically 4).

this is 1tb hard drive(patient) i got 2 tb wdz hard for heads.


@magnet.

other set is successful head swapped case. deferant s/n

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.
