Plug your numbers into Seagate's warranty validator:
http://support.seagate.com/customer/war ... dation.jsp

Compare the date code on the label against the YWW (Year / Week) date codes on the chips.

Seagate date code calculator:
http://www.bugaco.com/calculators/seagate_date_code.php

I believe the date of manufacture may also be stored in the SA.

STRONZATE (Bullshit).

There are many things to "do" with a PCB / drive without touching a screw, the OP is a pro.

PM sent. ;)

Even so-called pros can benefit from the advice of lesser mortals, as you well know from personal experience.

The eventual lock is the lesser/last problem... Was the rest fixed?
