Hello
Drive in topic came with clicking ( not the regular noise of failed heads )

As I know that LED 1102 is related to damaged heads
So I replaced the heads from identical donor, but it gives the same error.

Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Thanks in advance

Attached FIPS :

Still looks like heads. Do you have another donor handy.

PCB maybe?

Tried 3 donors with same message.


That's what I suspected the most.


This drive is USB 2.0, so I converted it to SATA with good known PCB.

+1 i have worked on simular case like this with same log results always end with LED 1102 and the hard disk still spinning and from the hard disk noise i believe that this noise isn't head issue so i examin the 2 platters and found small scratches on platter 0 and platters 1&2&3 clean with some luck i found 1 matched donor in my inventory after that i make hot sawp and save all critical module from heads 1&2&3 For example slist&tlist&slist
And 1 full module dir from head 1
After that i copy module to donor and make de task and make head map and ignored head 0
And after that i back to utlitily and make smart swap and the hard disk become ready and i think you are know whole the rest of process.

hope this help you

I sent you a pm

Thanks all for your inputs.
Will give it another try, but the problem that I have several opened cases now and time is not on my side.
Will post results asap.
Thank you
