I HAVE CHANGED BOARDS AND SOLVED THE PROBLEM
BEFORE,BUT HAVE USED THE EXACT SAME BOARD,
DAN
: I have a damaged power socket on my maxtor drive and by mistake have applied the +12v to the +5v rail and blown an ic near to the ide socket. Can anyone inform me if I purchase another maxtor of the same model and change the board on the drive, that I might save my data? ie are all levels of board compatible.
