also G0064A which is SATA on MQ04ABB400 should be compatible with the two above

these cases are victims of the (we call them) micro-damages and or the "other kind of damage" (this is a company secret) but 97% of the cases are micro or nano damages (you may know them on toshiba since ever) anyway whilst some really almost invisible damages can be seen with the aid of...

810067 is the USB Type-C version of the 810035 which as known is the SATA 810030

Confirmed USB G0089 is compatible as expected with USB G0090 so the SATA G4311 is good for them

This needs to be added to the first post of the thread in the list today I'll do the test with a G0090A A strange anecdote: here I have an MQ04UBB400 hard drive manufactured in October 2022 in the Philippines with the board G0090A, and I have an identical one manufactured in the Philippines in...

Hello It would be interesting to share the heads stack interchangeability (if any) of the various drives in subject what it was for S5XS and AJGS , with the various Sapyglass flavours looks not, it is a different story Have you tried something? E.G. the GX6 looks to have a unique heads stack...

About Board 800022 (SATAs , three versions) which corresponds to the 800041(USB3.0) and 810012 (TYPC) three versions or even more you must simply check the heads/spindle driver version you'll see B20 B22 B23 (since today , never seen version B21) just match the driver wrong match , no spin

but in the previous message you've written that the PATIENT board installed on the DONOR drive was not making it to spin if that was the case, the preamps of the two drives are not matching --- while if the PATIENT board on the PATIENT drive WITH original PATIENT heads , when powered makes...

Ok solved reason for this entire topic is that we are not so confident about editing HDD ID in the SpyGlass thoug since heads were tested and fine both reading and writing. we edited HDD ID removed the usual SED tick, and the rest is as usual interesting to be noticed that SED v2 is now...

so you have the confirmation that the preamp is wrong type this is/was the same on some WDs 2.5" at the epoch of WDxy00BEVT (various families) We know how to determinate the preamp in MQ0x families from labels , but anyone can easily test the compatibility with a preliminary swap where you...

hello you should have created a specific topic, though you have realistically an uncompatible preamp have you tried the PATIENT board on the DONOR drive BEFORE to swap heads?

I cannot run any since currently I can only restore module 30 access at that point the drive is SED locked I tried also to block module 02 instead of module 30 but I'm not familiar with that procedure and I don't know if it does work with SpyGlass with board USB 800041 alias SATA 800022 also I...

Hello premise: the ROM from the USB board written in the unlocked SATA board returns again a SED locked drive. Unlock the ROM with new utility 7.1.10 looks not supported for SpyGlass simple, with "simple" I mean those with board 800041, and I suppose it is due to the simple reason that usually...

WD family name: Carmel ROM Modules: ROM version............................. : 02.APV ROM F/W version......................... : 00020044 Overlay F/W version..................... : 02.APV Servo F/W version....................... : 08.1Q do you kindly have the modules backup for this ROM...

Hello Friends :-) I have an historical problem with these USB boards I mean the board of this WD5000BMVV-11A1CS0 and looks like I'm not alone --> https://forum.acelaboratory.com/viewtopic.php?t=9759 and I exactly mean when it comes the time to use a compatible SATA board ... and at this...

I have here a WD40NPZZ-00PDPT0 it has board 800022-001 REV P1 so 001 could be good for 4TB Though we did a bunch of tests with three boards 000, 001 and 002 The behavior is that with some you can't neither detect the ROM (ROM coming from a USB drive) and some , when you write the ROM with...

Hello did you suceed with board 800069 in some manner? Thank you

That is my supposition too But It Could Be possible that They have some log in the other modules This would be crazy and they're the performances aspect With locks I mean they can record records about the dynamic translator

WAOW that would explain the 90MB/sec of speed even in the last chain Head #0 in the chains Around 400M and 500M does return sectors with HEX content, so they are not blank but in the same area head #1 is already hanging on DFL forum a kind user confirmed he swapped heads between Palmer...

Anyway head #0 looks better than #1 at least reading modules I have spared SA Regions to #1 and it doesn't give the ID, though with some hangs it reads all the critical modules so I have spared to #0, here things are fast and smooth, but no difference on the data LBAs

Hello Jared so looks like the point will turn on: how does the "new preamp installation" is detected maybe the heads serial number is read and compared with some record in some of the modules? A guy here http://forum.hddguru.com/viewtopic.php? ... 12#p271712 replied that he solved already...

Hello friends I had this kind of info: "translator is in some manner "linked" with the serial number of the heads so if you will change JUST (only) the heads, you'll read ONLY x00 from all users data LBAs" do you know something about this? have you succesfully swapped heads on WD10SMZW or...

Hello Jared I know WD pretty well, I mean those from 2009 on I agree with you, I do the same I have either a simpler approach, same board, same sticker or stamp on/for the spindle and obviously a matching head map or with more heads. About close date, well I would say, yes, it is better...

Hello have you ever experienced about those values for heads compatibility? I mean instead of Micro Jogs? Thank you

Hello, in these cases I'd check out the "Preamp DAC Editor" values see this screenshot Module 47 - Pream DAC Editor values which makes even more sense for those WD drives without micro jogs E.G. in some cases the WD5000LMVW also the WD5000LPVX heads swap can turn into a PIA , yes those 1...

Hello https://www.hddheadtools.com/product/wd ... overy-pcb/ do any of you tried it out? Does it look modified? Or is that just a 800066 that was not locked? thank you for this curiosity Thank you

Seeking for the board G3959A --------> G3918A I have found this Toshiba SATA board S50058 check it on Aliexpress https://bit.ly/2FnsiS3 same processor , same spindle/heads controller

Hi Jared allow me to share our personal experience We had some Seagate F3 that were clicking after heads swap, instead after importing the heads adaptives with PC-3000, they had initialized and were recovered fine. Regards

Hello PCLAB can you kindly ask the guy that unlocked the ROM of Rosewood 8C, how he did that? Thank you

I've saved and restored the ROM and got it powered but the drive was not good with SA and or heads :-| so no chance to test it fully, sorry

As far as I can observe WD USB 771962 has the same Marvell controller and the same WD Nautilus chips as the 771959 Kind regards Robert @ Recupero Dati Hard Disk 299 RecuperoDati299euro.it
