Hello,

I have this PCB in the image below, and I need to convert it to SATA because I suspect there is a problem with the head. However, I did not find compatible PCB records.

Has anyone ever needed to convert this PCB model?

I could try to solder a SATA connector to the terminals and convert, but I would prefer a less invasive solution

Can you guys pinpoint me what components to remove. I see 4 resistors. Where is the oscillator?

Leave the crystal alone if you are going to remove the capacitors (not "resistors"). Clearly you have no idea what you are doing or why you are doing it, so perhaps it would be best to outsource this job.

Otherwise ...
