I am looking for 14 PCB boards for 500GB Hitachi PATA / IDE drives
The model/part number for the pcb that I need are:
0A29252
BA1502_

I have a number of these drives, some which are clicking and some that are just unresponsive.

Thank you in advance.

Joel

PCB's aren't going to fix them, the clicking ones at least.

I had read that the clicking could be caused by a bad pcb confusing the position of the actuating arm. This would cause the arm to continue to its maximum position which would cause the click. I figured if I could get some pcbs I could test this out.

you should know that if clicking is PCB issue, there will be NO DR, NO TOOLS, NO FORUM at all

it might be simple/complex case, depends on the tools in hand + proper diagnose

Again, NO DIY

good luck

Someone had responded to me via pm, but my account is to new to reply, best of posting here.

I am definetly looking for a DIY, I am a generally handy person, but would prefer to not have to resolver any chips.

Any help is greatly appreciated.

Without advanced data recovery equipment it is difficult and time consuming.

You could probably make an inquire to a specialized data recovery company and ask for a quote for just testing the drives to see what their issues are.

Depending on how similar these drives are and what is wrong with what, then some of these parts, including the PCBs, can be used as parts among each other.
