Hey

Got this drive with heads completely toasted.
The thing is that he head map is 0,2,3. I have 2 platters and one missing arm (just 3 head surfaces). On the donors I could have and I have searched for, the headmap is 0,1,2....
What do you suggest? Get one with 4 heads and try?
Have you got this kind of situation?
Thanks

Using one with 4 heads is better anyway. That one lone head is hard to position when putting the heads back into the drive. With an even number, you can keep a separator in there.
