Need some assistanse with dead FUJITSU MHY2160BH HDD

September 8th, 2011, 12:05

Hello everyone!

I have a dead hdd FUJITSU MHY2160BH, CA06889-B377000T. The platters won't spin and I'm pretty sure the PCB is fried so I need some guidance to swap the PCB.

HDD Details are:
Serial ATA

Made in Thailand
Model: MHY2160BH
Part# CA06889-B377000T
SER: K428T7B281VA
160GB
Board # on PCB CA26344-B32104BA
Board Laber# VCP7YQ8L26
Date: 11/30/2007

My question is, does the PCB needs to have the same exact specs? I found this one online but the numbers are kind of different. Can I still use this PCB?

FUJITSU MHY2160BH, CA06889-B036 (Mine is B37)
Board # on PCB CA26344-B32104BA (The same as the defective one I have)
Board number on label: VCP7X6NLFC ( Different from mine)
DATE: 10-16-2007

My apology's if this is not the right place to ask for this.

I will appreciate any assistance on this....

Thanks!

Hi,

You would be very lucky if after PCB swap you could access data.
One need to swap ROM also, if it's external.

Thank you for your response :)

It is a 2.5 laptop HDD. Do I still need to swap the ROM as well?
