i told in some threads that my seagate 7200.11 apread bricked then unbricked for a short while (very short).
something i neglected to say was that there was a lighting storm than night, the wost yet (winter only starts out here).
now hard drive clicks at start.

iv told that on other threads, but now, i came a cross this pcb:

New!! HDD-PCB.COM for all your PCB and donor HDD requirements!

thanks.

You have big interest in Data Recovery and DR companies, and multiple cases of Data Recovery requirements. I get the feeling you are in the early stages of beginning your own DR firm, am i right?

or else terribly unlucky with HDD's
