Which a the difference between a seagate and an OEM drive?

April 22nd, 2009, 19:51

Hi,

I have a few months in making data recovery and It´s the first time I need to make a platter exchange from an OEM drive model ST91608210, the origianal PCB works perfect.

Does I need to buy for the replacement the model of an OEM drive or can I buy the model of seagate?

Can somebody explain me please which is the difference between the manufacturer and the OEM drives?

Thank you
Doomer

The difference is in firmware in 99% of drives
