Samsung HD103sj not spinning or making any noise.

[rayf937]

My samsung hd103sj died after a hard reset of my computer. I have two other hard drives in the PC and they both are working correctly, the samsung fails to spin and causes errors if it is plugged in when booting.

I have tested and removed the TVS on the PCB and jumped the fuse. Still no results. Right now I'm looking to get a new PCB for this drive. I plan on performing the chip swap as well, my only concern is PCB compatiblity. I see model numbers for PCB's such as BF41-00314A 00 S3M Rev. 03 R00 and BF41-00303A 00. I'm just not sure which ones should be compatible.


I'll post some pictures of my hard drive for reference

Did you check all the TVS's ??

I'm guess yes by there comment in the original post

Grammatically that means he tested and removed 1 TVS. Board looks like it has several TVS's. A matter of semantics perhaps. But I'd be sure to check them all.

"Jumped the fuse"

Does that mean that you bridged the connection?

There are several diodes but only two TVS diodes.
