Correct me if I'm wrong...

1. Start good drive, same as original

2. Stop motor

3. Swap HDA while original PCB connected

4. Start motor

5. Set P/W (and remember it)

6. Power down.

7. Now you know new P/W, so easy to remove!

But.........I guess you don't have donor, so job is nearly impossible as PC3000 has no support for this drive :-(

Hi PCIimage ,
Exactly ,I Do Not Have a Donor .But i Will Check If i Can Find One .Do We Need To Worry About Other Formalities or Just Get The Same Model HDD

To check compatability, test the patient PCB on the donor, it should still work perfectly with either board
