Hi to all,

Need an opinion about this disk, the heads stay stuck near the RAMP.



Can anyone advise me.

Please PM me.

Thanks

Looks like the top head there is actually up under the ramp instead of in its normal position. Last time I had this come through I had to replace the stack.

Definitely. And check the head stack for missing heads, and locate those before you put on the new stack.

I have only seen one of these before, was a 2500BEVS. Besides the heads being destroyed there was lots of media damage; I would make sure to look closely and see if you can find any damage. The drive I have was not recoverable.

Thanks to all,

i Could resolve the problem off the heads stuck in the ramp.

When the heads came back to the Ramp, it looks that is Ok.

I will open it again, and take some pictures, and try to see better,
but when i look , i did not see any head damage or missing.

This is the occasion to point out the design of this ramp and how incredibly this system does not fail everytime...

Are you sure, the top head is existing?
Did you have double checked?

Janos

will double check it tomorow.

Thanks to all.

I have seen this issue some times, but all the time the head was gone and this way can the get under the ramp....
If the head is gone, the head's soldering badly scratches up the surface....

This has been my experience as well.

the only way is to change head.
Some case will damage the platter but if lucky enough there will not platter damage or maybe just a little scracth caused by the sticking...but still can be recovered after a Head swap...

I am amazed that the armature didn't have enough power to rip that head off. Can you take a picture of the other side of the head? At a minimum it had to rub against the platter and form some debris. REALLY LUCKY!
