WD2500AAKS-00F0A0 / 2061-701537-U00 05PD1 WD SATA 3.5 PCB

This listing is for the hard drive PCB (logic board) ONLY — the hard drive itself is not included. Because we maintain a large inventory of PCBs, the unit you receive may differ slightly from the pictured board. Intended for use in hard drive repair and data recovery, this PCB is a replacement part and should be verified for compatibility before installation. To confirm a PCB swap will resolve your issue, consult our hard drive diagnostics guide and review the Donor Matching Guide. Most HDD circuit boards store unique configuration data in a ROM ("memory") chip; that information is required for the drive to function properly. The ROM chip or its contents must be moved or copied to the replacement board; if physical transplant is possible, a local computer technician can usually perform this task. For purchases of $60 or more we include a complimentary adaptation service that either transfers the ROM chip to the new PCB or reprograms the replacement board with the correct ROM data. If you plan to perform the work yourself, please read our PCB Replacement Guide. Should a simple board swap not resolve the problem, we also provide a more comprehensive PCB Replacement Service — see the Adaptation Service page for details.
