PCB of my broken USB harddisk

I was impressed you have the PCB of my broken USB harddisk.

However, I can see the disk startup in Linux dmesg, and I hear the disk spinning. In the dmesg output, I get the warning “Read Capacity(10) failed: Result: hostbyte=DID_OK driverbyte=DRIVER_SENSE”.

Would it be usefull to order this PCB?

Or would it be the configuration RAM that is corrupted? Or some other kind of BIOS failure?

Any help is greatly appreciated!

Replacement the PCB will not solve the problem below.

    * The drive will power up normally (no ticking noises, errors etc) but will not be recognized by the computer

    * The drive will power up normally and be recognized correctly but will report a size of 0 bytes

    * The drive will power up but report SMART errors on boot

Those problem is caused by the HDD firmware corrupted.You can find a data recovery company help.
