Dear Gurus,
Let me just say, i am so glad i found this forum. I was looking into learning about data recovery for a while but had no luck finding a worth wile course. That was untill i found this forum. and i am so glad i did. I know a little bit. like how to get data off using R-Studio but i am sure there is room for improvement, and i am eager to learn more. So if anyone can email me a manual, or point me in a direction on where i can download a good cource, i would highly appriciate that. Now on to my current delema:
A client brought in a Seagate Momentus 160GB with a fired board. He spilled water on his computer, and the drive would make repetative noise. So i bought an identical drive and swaped the boards. It now sounds like continues pinning on and on. What am i doing wrong?

What u are doing wrong is dealing with customer drive with valuable data without knowledge.

This course looks interesting:

When you swap a PCB, you usually need to transplant the 8-pin serial EEPROM chip from patient to donor. This is because it stores calibration data determined at the factory.
However, your drive may have internal damage rather than just a simple PCB problem. :-(
