you may want to ask pro for help
Raptors of this model may stay quite even with damaged heads
Finland is very close to Saint-Petersburg, Russia
I suggest Q-Lab there - http://q-lab.ru/en/index.shtml

there is no difference between 00NLR1 and 00NLR5
If you feel like you want to change heads - change them
But I must warn you - this drive is not easy one if you never did Raptor with internal problems before I really not recommend to open it

Just swapping parts at random -- especially if you do not have the proper tools and experience -- is a good way to lose your data for good.

Swap platters only if you have a motor or bearing issue.

It may have been totally unnecessary to swap heads. Please give the drive to someone who can accurately diagnose & fix it -- if you truly want the data.

Good luck.

Agree with jono.

Don't play more, because there will be no data for recover anymore....
