Hello, friends
Somebody wanna guess, what is the problem?
The drive comes with no detection in bios.
The customer replaced the pcb, and no change.
I have measured, the preamp with dmm and looks good.

Any idea?

Yes, the VC's wire left the pad, caused by cold-soldering.
You are the winner!

Congratulation!

It would be a shame on this forum if I was the guru of gurus here.
Fortunately there are some more knowledgable guys.
