I have a 1TB WD10SMZW with PCB 2060-800069-001 Rev P1 that I’d like to buy a replacement for. The symptoms of the drive at the moment is that it’s very very slow, freezing up the computer while trying to access. I’ve been able to successfully scan the drive for data recovery. No audible nasties. Do you think a PCB swap might work in this case? If so could you point me to the correct one. I would be looking at replacing the PCB and then doing a data recovery (Hopefully faster/more responsive).
I had a look at WD PCB 2060-800069-001
Replacement the PCB will not solve the problem below.
* The drive will power up normally (no ticking noises, errors etc) but will not be recognized by the computer
* The drive will power up normally and be recognized correctly but will report a size of 0 bytes
* The drive will power up but report SMART errors on boot
Those problem is caused by the HDD firmware corrupted.You can find a data recovery company help.
