Default hard drive not powering up - change circuit board?



Strike that. Part of the platter motor assembly is actually part of the
main board on IDE drives. This is what I get for reading newsgroups right
before I hit the hay. 8-/





No it's not, I've successfully swapped a dead board on an IDE drive a
few times, though they were older drives. Give it a shot, it might work.
