Do we have any values for D3 and D4 ? My D4 is not easy to identify as it is "smoked" ?

Thanks, Jens

You can replace the 12V and 5V TVS diodes with an SMBJ12A and an SMAJ5.0A, respectively. Both are available from Farnell, Mouser, Digikey.

To test the resistances of each component with a multimeter (DMM), you need to set the DMM to the 200 ohms resistance range. Connect the black probe lead to the DMM's COM banana socket, and the red probe to the Volt/Ohm socket. Then connect the probe tips to each side of the diode. If the meter reads near zero, then the diode is shorted. Note that the meter leads will have a finite resistance which you can verify by touching the probe tips together.

This tutorial should help you:
http://www.ladyada.net/learn/multimeter/resistance.html

Read "Example 1. Testing a resistor".

Please DON'T do this:

If your other drive has the same PCB, then swapping D4 should be OK.

Just be aware that D4 is the circuit reference, not a part number. This means that D4 on a different board may refer to a completely different diode.
