Blown IDE Interface? - ST3360320ACE - DB35.3

March 18th, 2016, 14:12

Hello guys,

here I have a ST3360320ACE 360 GB with a blown IDE Interface?

P/N: 9BK03J-061
FW: 3.ACD
Date Code: 08277

I need help to find a suitable donor board. Any recommendations?

Even If I have a board is it possible to access the data without transferring informations? Or is there a ROM-Chip which sould be transferred?

Greetings from Germany
Benjamin

EDITED PS: The Pic with the losen screw I added... ... and the drive has two missing IDE Pins too..
1. markings on the main chip 2. worn out losen screw 3. 2 missing IDE Pins 4. small blown technical component... What has happened to the drive... wondering If I use a new board... Maybe there must be a mechanical issue too...

I googled for over an hour now... this board seems to by fckin rare... even If I find the board - what do you think is it worth the effort or should I sent the drive to someone that is able to fix the issue.

Find a matched PCB and transfer ROM.
Is the drive spin up with normal calibration or up normal noises?

if you are not comfortable, better send it someone.

BTW, it is not F3 Arch drive.
