Are you performing data recovery for customers as a service? You seem to ask many basic questions about many different disks.
Maybe you need to post the terminal log here, might be a bit more helpful.

820N is not the model. Maybe SP0802N or SP0822N ?
PCB swap doesn't work.
P.S. HDDGUY is right

SP0802N is the model,

I would appreciate even more a PayPal donation... more than a thing to say is a procedure to learn, job to do and finally money to earn.

Don't try to swap PCB, no need.
