SV2204D Samsung IDE Voyager

[Eastcoast]

Advice needed.

I have blown Motor Unit (I believe) on an ancient Samsung 2204D Voyager Drive

I have attached a stock image here of the board with the damaged area marked.

I can't see an external ROM, so was wondering if it's embedded and which chip it is I need to move or transfer?

TIA

Actually, got a picture now of the actual board.

I doubt it's even necessary to transfer the ROM on such an old drive. If you get a matched PCB from the same FW version drive, it'll probably just work.

The motor controller appears to be damaged on the 5V side, so I would be worried about the preamp.

Edit: I'm not sure now. This is an earlier design.

Thank you Mikippp, Jared and Fzabkar for all the replies.

I quoted a price range just in case there were internal issues.

I think there is a chance PCB change would probably do it, but the customer isn't interested due to cost.

As reported here, I have had quite a few drives recently with blown boards and subsequently needed to change the HSA as the preamps got blown.
Cheers again!
