Hi Folks,

I've got a 40GB 2.5" PATA Drive without any identification marks.
I attached pictures, any help identifying which brand and model will be appreciated.

Cheers,

I take it you don't work on many Hitachi drives? What are it's symptoms? Probably a HTS541040G9AT00.

Thanks Guys.
No i don't see many Hitachi's around here specially not the old ones.

The symptoms:
Clicking.
I opened it up and didn't see any obvious damage to platters or heads.
Is there a know issue with these models?

Cheers,

OK got it how to identify these ones, based on the white sticker on the PCB it was easy to find on Google the model and part number, thanks guys.

Using PC3K i managed to red NVram and ROM, it is a Heads issue.
