Maxtor head compatibility

[dmarques]

Hi,

I have here a Maxtor Sabre 6L160P0 with damaged heads.
I need to exchange heads and have here a donor drive for that.
Main drive has K, M, B, A and donor drive has K, M, C, A.
Someone told me that we had to match first 2 letters, but when I oppened the drive, in main drive I've got a head on the upper surface and on donor drive I don't.
How can I be sure how to find a donor with same head map?

Thanks.

Hi...
as article of hddguru

Maxtor (all families)
+ firmware
+country
Third character in alphabetic code type X, X, X, X should match

I wait that it helps
