Okay, so a couple of days ago ... I accidentally plugged in the wrong power supply for the G3 external HDD and then I started to smell smoke. Now, the HDD won't spin, click or power up ... which leads me to believe that there is a possibility that I can retrieve my data if I can find a replacement PCB.

So far, I have had no luck finding a match. Google is practically sending me little to no results for any of the numbers I've found from the current PCB.

If anyone can help, I would be so appreciative. I live in Australia, and am almost willing to pay for a new PCB to be delivered to me internationally if there is no other hope.

The details I've gotten from the current PCB is as follows:

* BF41-00284A 01 (etched on board)
* PAAZE4MDA80772 (found under barcode on white sticker, located on sata connector)
* 8818827-TFJ2
YPM25031
1805 A1P T TW
(all found on one square chip)
* SAMSUNG 013
K4H561638J-LCCC
H5616 WR84776AU
(found on one rectangular chip)

Thank you.
