Seagate 7200.11 : 2 TVS ??

March 12th, 2009, 21:06

Hi.
I've recently fried a 750Gb pcb but fortunately i've just screwed the TVS.
Thought to bridge up and close the circuit, to bypass the burnt component but luckily i've bumped in this site and realized i was closed to burn the all thing...
Anyway, pulled the pcb apart, removed the tvs... All good, working like a charm... But i've noticed there's another tvs, just beside the melted one... a sort of parallel structure.. a backup?
Does anyone know anything about?
It's a Seagate 750Gb, 7200.11, ST3750330AS

You can post a pic of the burned part that will help us identify the part and tell you more about it .

2 TVS are normal; a 12V and a 5V.
