Hi

Today I get this disk, that's not recognized by BIOS or Maxtor SD Doctor.
The client also have the exactly same disk, to use as donor.

Tried to swap PCB, but the donor PCB on the bad drive, it starts clicking and a bunch of noises.

Tried to read FW from Donor Drive, I get errors from Doctor, but it's recognized ok and works OK on the PC.

Just by swapping the PCB, shouldn't work? Or need to exchange ROM's?

Thanks
PS: here's the picture of them.

MX15 firmware was affected by Seagate's 7200.11 BSY bug. The same fix applies.
