Hi,
I have been having problems with my hdd's circuit board on my dell d610. I aint sure what happen, I think it was just my bad luck. Anyways I was wondering if its possible of saving the HDD by switching the board with one of the same model boughten brand new off the internet? Also, I forgot to mention that I put a master password (Bios password also applied but thats not a problem since I am able to enter my password) on the hdd so no could get into it without my consent (just in case it got stolen). I am just wondering if that will screw anything up with the new circuit board? The name and model # of the hdd is Toshiba MK4026GAX . I hope someone can give me some advice on this topic because I don't want to wast my money which ever way I go, buy a new hdd or just a circuit board. Please respond and thanks in advance
