Seagate ROM transfer is this compatible

[jerovsek]

Is possible to move ROM from donor to patient.
Each bord have different MCU and ROM
Donor(D) date 07066 ; patient(P) 07084

Unlikely...the processors are completely different.

ISTM that the two PCBs should be compatible. Both MCUs carry what appears to be a Seagate part number (100356070), which would suggest that STMicroelectronics and Agere are second sourcing each other.

The PCB stickers also have an identical Seagate number (100389143).

If you have the skill you can swap them. The question is "what is this exercise about?"
Compatibility of PCBs?

Fzabkar said it all.
They are compatible you can go ahead with ROM swap for sure

Thank you Rob, FZabkar and Samo for your replay.

ROM chips near MCU are also different type

Should be fine.
