dakotart Posted July 21, 2008 Report Share Posted July 21, 2008 my work drive died and I believe its the circuit board. does anyone have a WD800BB 80GB hard drive that they don't need? Thanks, Rich Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LuGie Posted July 21, 2008 Report Share Posted July 21, 2008 Looked up the model number, it could have both PATA or SATA interface. Tell me which one you are using and I can be of assistance. I have a couple 120gb WD Sata drives laying around. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dakotart Posted July 21, 2008 Author Report Share Posted July 21, 2008 This drive is a PATA. its powering up, goes click click and then powers down. I pulled the board off and it looks like a capacitor crapped out (corrosion on 1 end of it). I have had some luck before swapping board of the same model drive and being able to get data off of the drive. I'm hoping that this is the same case. of course it was the 1 drive not in a raid. ha.
