Locate the number imprinted onto your PCB board (circled red in our picture), it should say 2060-771640-003 REV P1.
-
If there is a ROM chip circled in the item picture, then please check that your board has the ROM chip. Otherwise you can skip this step.
-
If this is a match, then we can make a clone of your board. We will need you to mail the dead board to us for a ROM chip swap.
-
The sticker number 2061-771640-L03 AB is optional, and does not have to match for compatibility.
To make the clone, we will need you to fill this form, then ship your DAMAGED PCB (circuit board) to us. We will then copy the information from your PCB onto our PCB. We will then ship the working cloned PCB back to you. (To find out more, please read our article by clicking here.)
This process is necessary to ensure compatibility. Alternatively, swapping the ROM chip on your own also ensures compatibility, just send us an email if you prefer this option.

When to buy this item: |
We recommend buying this item when you are sure it is the PCB. For example, if there was a power surge, or some components are obviously burnt, or the wrong power adapter was used to power up the drive. If the drive will not spin up at all, and wasn't dropped, chances of success with replacing the PCB are quite good.
