This is an MCU locked drive, so transplanting the ROM to another PCB won't help. Buying an unlocked PCB isn't going to help an end user, because it only allows access to the firmware -- the actual data will be still encrypted.


as far as i recall, foreign mcu makes the fw fail with a specific error code, doesn't allow access to encrypted data at all, perhaps if SED is turned off, it was too long ago to remember exactly.
