What's the problem with the drive ?
What tools do you have ?
You should know that it is probably SED
You didn't mentioned the model no. and PCB no.

771959 will do
Of course need to transfer the ROM chip (or its contents)
Need to take care on SED ... I hope you know the drill

Convert your hdd in sata by changing PCB.
PCB number of your hdd is 2060-771961, swap it with equivalent sata board...
771960, 771939, or 771959 (MCU version should be the same written on native pcb MCU).

You have to swap ROM from usb native pcb to donor sata pcb, then try to clone surface with DE or similar.

P.S.
If your drive is SED (encrypted firmware) you will not be able to access into SA, this means you will not be able to turn off bad sectors automatic reallocation or to clear Re-Lo list to solve possible slow reading issue or even doing head map on ram.
Only PC3000 is able to unlock SA of SED drives, if you don't have it then your only option is to try cloning surface directly hoping that it does not have bad heads or slow reading issue or to many bad sectors...
The best you can do in that case is to clone by changing reading timeout on bad sectors (set very low timing as 300 ms) and set big jumps when passing over bad sectors (example 10.000.000 LBA jumping).

Good luck!

Use xx1960 SATA PCB instead of patient PCB, it is complete analog. 1959 is compatible functionally, you can use it also, but not all screw holes have the same location as on the original PCB (fit it carefully).
Can you make photo of USB bridge IC?
Usually it is JMS569 (not crypting). SED could be applied, but not so often.

It's correct if we are talking about commercial tools.

What do you mean Martin?
Have you found a way how to access SA on WD SED drives with encrypted fw without using PC3000 ?

I really respect guys from ACElab. But I want to ask you - does only Acelab have a vendor commands? Only Acelab can send commands into drive? :)
Doesn't matter how you send commands to drive.
Actually, there are two "generations" of SED. In first case, changing flag is enough. In second - decryption should make process/apply group of modules.
