Hello
I need your advice, I have a WD hard drive, the heads are broken. I have 2 possibilities either I change the head or I exchange the disks. What would you advise as a solution?
Thank you

It depends on data ? You want to recover data or not ?

When you say exact same disk, can you confirm DCM is same ? Swapping head it not easy if you never did it before.
