[QUOTE="hughvane, post: 1104980, member: 56231"] PCB's are not often the cause of drive failure - but I guess it could be an interesting exercise trying to replace one! I'd say it's damaged boot blocks on the HD, and the reader heads can't get past them. They might be repairable, but only with Disk Warrior, which is rather expensive @ US$100. It's the best repair utility available, but for that you pay a premium price. [size=1][PS. to get the thread moved, PM a Mod individually.][/size] [/QUOTE]
