Hi !

My HDD is dead cause i did touch it in operation.

My mother card doesn't reconize him anymore and does not spin.

This is his spec, but i don't know all of it

Model : HD103SJ
S/N : S246J1KZ203460

I bought it in Paris, 07/21/2010 (almost 1 year)

So :
What PCB must i buy to remplace mine (cause i don't know the spec i have to check, plz check the picture)
Chere can i buy it ?

Thanks you very much for your help.

PS: If you need more picture, just tell me

Hi

If you have a multimeter first of all check the diodes.

To match a pcb you need the same pcb letters and the close date possible.
You have a sticker covering the drive date.. tell us the date of this drive.

Regards

What do you mean in PCB letter ? The number on the main chip
(K4H561638J-LCCC) ? (cf picture number 5)

I have only one sticker on my HDD, you can see 46080.40 . Is your drive date you are talking about ?

The K4H561638J-LCCC chip is the SDRAM.

The "main" chip is the Marvell MCU, 88i9025-TFJ2.

The drive's manufacture date is under the 46080.40 sticker.

From an examination of the date codes on the various ICs, I would expect a manufacturing date of around January or February 2010.

BTW, hdrescue is asking you to check the TVS diodes:

Repost to the repair forum if you need more help in this regard. You may not need a PCB ...

You're right , the production date under the sitcker is 2010.02

For the diode, i don't understand ? What do I have to check ? Cause i don't have a multimeter....

To resume this is the specs ive to looking for :

Main chip : Marvell MCU, 88i9025-TFJ2
Production date : 02/2010 (close as possible)

BTW, a digital multimeter should cost you less than US$10. In fact here is a DMM for $5:

Samsung's donor PCB should have the same board number as the damaged board. The board number is etched on the PCB, begin with BF41-
