Post subject:  I need a strange Wester Digital HD

I need a exactly donor (Western Digital 2´5 HD) to change the platters. My PCB it´s burned but
not carbonized completely, but the ePROM doesn´t survive. I can read yet a part of the code.

PCB CODE: 2060-701615-003

I don´t know the p/n, firmware or the DCM codes. However, I suspect it may belong an HD of
the Scorpio Blue or Scorpio Black series like:

wD3200BJKT
WD2500BJKT
WD1600BJKT
WD3200BEKT
WD2500BEKT
WD1600BEKT

It has two pairs of heads and two platters and micro-USB connector located at the PCB. It hasn´t SATA neither
IDE connectors.

Please, answer the following questions as soon as posible:

Anybody has a similar HD with micro USB located at the PCB without IDE or SATA connections?

Anybody knows which would micro-USB connector be included at the PCB?

Anybody has seen a notebook with micro-USB connections exclusively to connect the HD´s to the mother board
directly?

Thanks!

Read the barcode on the drive chassis with a barcode scanner. This will give you the serial number. Input this to the WD warranty site and it will tell you which model it is. Thanks to a well known member for helping me with this recently :)

Based on the damage that you posted earlier, I agree with Dobre, I doubt this drive is recoverable.

Only problem with this in this case is that since it is an external, I think the serial number will only get him the model of the external, rather than the model of the drive
