Hey guys, I think I need a board for this drive. It came from an external case. The drives spins up, clicks a few times then spins down. On boot up, the system will not boot if in ACHI mode and if in IDE mode it just hangs for a while and loads without detecting the drive. Checked those two components for 12v and 5v and both were good. |

hi, would you like to tell me why you think it's the PCB problem? can you find out any damaged parts on it or you did something on it before? if no. i don't think it's PCB problem. may be crash head or something. |

Very very unlikely to be PCB. |

ok.. well I want to thank you guys for your helpful responses instead of selling me something I may not need! any idea what I should troubleshoot for next? The drive spins up.. makes a couple click noises (sounds like any other harddrive boot up sound) then I hear the sound of the heads parking and the drive spinning down. That is my best guess anyway.. I am not an expert I am just comparing to another drive I have. I checked those two little boxes (transistors?) up by the pins.. 5v and 12v as I have read. |
