Hello,
I have a WD1600AAJS-75M0A0 that I changed the heads.
Now the I can see the platters spin but the head arm doesn't move from park to the platters. When I re-use the new heads in the donor drive, it works fine.
The donor have the same 4-to-7 DCM, same country, same model, and 6 months between the manufacture date of the 2 drives
Could the manufacture date be the problem? why the new heads doesn't even clicks. it doesn't move from park?
Regards,
