Hi

I have this HDD with bad PCB (can't spin the platters and it gets very hot).
I have a MK6021GAS as the most similar donor. I put PCB on pacient and it spins.

I have tried to read CP from pacient but it doesn't reach RDY (only PCB).

Can I use the PCB from MK6021GAS and swap chip?

The chip is the one with the F00xxx sticker on it, right?
Thanks

Hi PCLAB,

Manually load the utilility in PC-3000, might take a few min since it's not ready. Click on the terminal tab, press enter, power cycle the pcb and quickly press enter again, that should force it into a ready state. Then you can read the CP and reprogram the other board.

If you need help let me know, I can TV in and do it for you. Should only take a minute.

Oh yeah, and make sure that you have the terminal connected.

Hello Data-Medics

I have tried that already. Only with PCB connected, it get's BSY for a few minutes, then all the lights go on and can't do nothing..
Can't read CP...

YES

as you said, we can build new pcb for toshiba, if original pcb is missed.
