First of all, which version of FW are you after?

I am guessing you mean that the PCB is dead, right? So...

Secondly, not sure how library FW will help you reconstruct a new ROM for this drive. You need to reconstruct the ROM from the ROM image files on the drive itself.

This is the PC3000 section of the forum, you know that?

You have PC3000 UDMA, right?

With respect, it seems a little odd that someone with the tool (and presumabiy a manual, Ace forum access and support) would not know basic stuff like this.

If you don't have pc3000 (or another FW tool) then you won't be able to fix this yourself.

If the donor PCB is compatible, then you should be able to access the SA. Then follow pcimage's advice regarding ROM regeneration.
