Hitachi matching donor drive

[jag17]

Hi

I have a hitachi deskstar SATA 3.5" 320GB disk
P/N: 0A33663
MLC: BA2364
MFG DATE: NOV-2007
MFG COUNTRY: CHINA
PCB LABEL: 0A53043
BA2178_
Mda744
84GL
The drive is not being detected by the machine or DDI. Am I right to
say it is a PCB failure or head crash?
Please let me know what information I need to match for donor drive?
Is there an webpage posted on how to match donor drives for different
drive models somewhere ?
Thank You
-Jag

Hi 'thatdellguy', apologies if I sounded demanding. I asked 'please' and 'thank you' and if you still feel that is so demanding I am sorry. I would be greatful if you can help me.

Cheers

P/N: 0A33663 should be enough for head compatibility.

For pcb take PCB LABEL: 0A53043 and change the nvram

Best regards,
