Hard drive weld damanged

April 24th, 2019, 6:30

Hello,

by mistake, I damaged with a screwdriver the hard drive weld connector as seen in this picture the orange part with 4 weld points:

The last weld point on the photo is now missing, instead there is a very small hole, the size of the weld point.

Can anyone give me advice on how to repair it ? I guess welding a new point would be risky, as under are hard drive plates ?

Thanks you

Run a separate wire from point to point.
