Which chip holds the firmware? Calipso III

[utdr]

This hard drive has a burnt smooth chip. I found an almost identical PCB but it didn't work. My question is is it better to pay someone $100 to swap out the smooth chip or can I swap out the Firmware chip myself. I believe its one of the 3 8 pin ic's but i don't know which one it is. Thanks, Ben

Rom IC is 25P10V on top right (U401)

Change only that IC
and must work!!!

It should work without resoldering
Something else has been broken

What happens after swapping the PCB?
Does it ID? If yes, how? Do you get any clicking?

[utdr]

When I power it on it does not register in the BIOS and it clicks once.

I swapped the chip and it worked. If any one els tries this a tip is to cut the chips off with a razor blade instead of trying to desolder them.
thanks for your help, Ben.

Hi,

there is no problem with desoldering the ICs, cutting sucks
though I'm glad U succeeded.

Even if u tried resoldering the SMOOTH chip u wouldnt have suceeded because the prints are burned .
