Help with Fujitsu MHV2080BH

[kirioulis]

Hi everyone!

I need help with trying to fix a Fujitsu MHV2080BH PART NO.CA06672-B3400AP
with REV NO. A2 and Firmware number OFFCEA-0081002D from a MacBook.
The drive makes clicking sound due to the fact that the heads go back and
fourth without stopping. How should I proceed ?? The disk is undetectable from
the bios, can I upgrade the firmware somehow or should I replace the PCB and
if so how do I match the donor drive

Thanks in advance!

Kirioulis,

These symptoms indicate most probaly defective heads.
To get the data, heads should be replaced; this is work for a pro in a cleanroom.

Best regards,

So u think there is nothing to be gained by replacing
the pcb huh?

Thanks for your reply!!!

No, chances are very high that changing the PCB will not give you any help.
