WD 2003FYYS HDD repair help

August 15th, 2024, 15:44

Hello all gurus,

My WD 2003FYYS HDD can't be detected by my desktop suddenly. BIOS can't detect this HDD either.
After I swapped PCB from a working same model HDD, it can be detected as no model type and 0GB.
It makes me think this HDD not only has PCB damaged but also heads.
How do you HDD gurus think?
Any options are very welcome

Why do you think the PCB is faulty?
Does the drive spin up initially?

What happens with the original pcb setup. Does the drive spin up? Does it make clicking sounds?
