Hello,
Anyone know what numbers I need to match up when looking for a donor drive for a headswap on a Fujitsu 2.5 hdd?
Thanks,

The number of heads.

I know that. But I also know that there are other codes/numbers on the drive that need to match. Just not sure which ones. Can anyone help?
Thanks,

Actually even the number of heads doesn't necessarily need to match up.

That's true enough, I've snipped off superfluous heads in the past when a suitable perfect donor wasn't at hand!
