Hi,
The PCB model is the same as the Pebble (2060-800022-000 REV P2)
The only difference is the amount of RAM

Thx Miki,

I am interested in the OP's pcbs, especially the PN of the controller, which is not visible on your photo btw.

Would the following combination work?

    donor (SATA) PCB + patient adaptives + donor loader

Otherwise, could it be that the patient's ROM code really needs to find 128MB of RAM? Or could it be that the MCU can communicate directly with the bridge via additional pins and, if so, could it be that the patient's ROM is checking for the presence of the bridge???

Thx Brian.

I have a couple of ideas but nothing for sure.
As Franc said it might be checking the presence of the bridge. Or there might be some config resistor mismatch.
you could check state sector and see if it gives some clue as well.
Or use donor fw and write patient specific rom modules to flash.

that's all for now.

I wonder where these pins go. Perhaps they go to the 12-pin connector, or maybe they connect to the MCU.

Hi,
The PCB model in SATA Spyglass is the same as in the Pebble (2060-800022-000 REV P2)
The only difference is the amount of DRAM !!!

DRAM size (allocated)................... : 131072 (95581) kB -> Spyglass
DRAM size (allocated)................... : 65536 (55665) kB -> Pebble

PCB from Pebble in Spyglass is NOT working
PCB from Spyglass in Pebble is working OK

I would say that ROM code checks RAM size or tries to load code past the limit of available RAM or whatever ....

As experimentation and to make sure what is causing the "incompatibilty" i would move a DRAM chip from Spyglass PCB to donor Pebble PCB and try on Spyglass (with native Spyglass ROM).

Yeah, a ROM from a 4 TB Spyglass won't work on a Pebble Beach, even though the PCB numbers are identical.

As a random aside, Spyglass uses a shingled data topology, whereas Pebble Beach does not.

Case closed (customer canceled service).

BUT... I found a 4TB SATA drive on eBay and it worked for the next 4TB USB we got in with firmware corruption.

This working SATA board PCB number is "2060-800022-001 rev p1."

One more donor drive still availabel on eBay, if anyone wants to prepare for the future:

I can confirm with jono-ats that the reason for the non-spin up and BSY, despite the match on the MCU and motor controller, is because of the subtle difference the PCB revision relating to Pebble Beach vs SpyGlass.

I have been working on a failed 4TB which uses the 2060-800041-003 REV P1. I was able to obtain a 3TB SATA which used 2060-800022-000 REV P2. This SATA PCB was no good despite having an identical match on the MCU and motor controller. As per the original post the drive would not spin and enter BSY.

Shortly after receiving the first 3TB USB disk I had another failed 3TB USB disk in. This time using 2060-800041-000 REV P1. Almost identical PCB layout to the -003 REV P1. One obvious difference, the -003 uses an Asmedia USB processor and the -000 uses a JM USB processor. Inspection of the ROM content of each showed the same in size, and content looking very similar. The donor SATA PCB worked normally for this revision.

Looks like a 4TB SATA disk shall be required too!

John

Did you compare the SDRAM (as per Mikippp's post)?

ISTM that the p/n on the PCB would reflect the artwork rather than the componentry. For example, I believe that the Asmedia and JMicron bridges are pin compatible, which means that they would function identically if installed on either PCB version. Instead I would think that the (variable) component configuration would be reflected in the stickered information.

I can confirm that the donor Pebble Beach PCB is using the following:

DRAM size (allocated)................... : 65536 (55664) kB

Due to the fault on the SpyGlass 4TB Usb PCB it has not been possible to access the SA fully to confirm the DRAM allocation.

:shock:
Why can't you just read the part number off the chip and ask Mr Google?

Hi,

did anyone have found a solution to this problem?

is there a compatible SATA PCB for USB PCB 2060-800041-003 ?

Thanks
