wd5000BMVW 11amcs2 don't work

June 7th, 2020, 1:36

Good morning and thanks for reading
I have a problem with this hard disk, turn on the light and it seems that the disk does not move, I fall to the ground and stop working, I do not know why I think it may be the usb connector, I am not very good with these issues but I have tried to look like in other boards how to solder directly to the pins of the board the usb (d + d- etc) but I don't know how to find them, could someone give me the solution?
Thanks a lot


I have sent to ask for a plate to replace the bios but if someone knows how to locate those points I would first try to directly solder the usb on the plate, but I cannot find the scheme on any website

This is not a DIY . You should find a professional DR center

+1, pcb is not the fault.
If data is important stop connecting the drive and contact your nearest professional recovery.

It's most likely a stiction fault.
