Just ordered the appropriate logic board from the above vendor. He sells it for $15 plus about $40 shipping from Malaysia. I will report results.

I have also read a string somewhere about difficulties in getting replacement logic boards to work since the bad block map or whatever it's called is not the same as the original. There were a variety of difficulties in doing this relatively simple operation which I will provide here if I can locate the link on my other computer.

hi, the "bad block map" isnt on the pcb. u have to pick up the proper pcb or if you have the tools, you can fix it

regards

Received the goods as promised, and he sent me two for the price of one! Maybe there are two versions of the board and felt I should have both [??] One component that says "1R5" is different on each board. Don't know if that means anything. Will update if I can resurrect the drive.

Hi,

The component with the '1R5' marking is the inductor for -5V power supply, it has nothing to do with FW version.
