WD5000AADS-00S9B0, 2061-701640-300 ACD3 — WD SATA 3.5 PCB Logic Board (No HDD)

This listing is for the hard drive printed circuit board (PCB / logic board) only for model WD5000AADS-00S9B0 (2061-701640-300 ACD3). No hard drive, platters, or enclosure are included. Because we stock a large number of PCBs, the board you receive may differ slightly from the photo. Intended use: data recovery and HDD repair. Before purchasing, confirm that a replacement PCB will resolve your issue by following our hard drive diagnostics guide, and verify compatibility using the Donor Matching Guide. Many PCBs contain unique information stored in a ROM memory chip that is required for the drive to function correctly. That ROM chip — or the data it holds — must be transferred to the replacement board. If the chip can be physically moved, a local computer technician can usually perform the transfer. For orders of $60.00 or more we provide a complimentary adaptation service that includes either transplanting the ROM chip onto the new PCB or reprogramming the replacement board with the correct ROM data. If you plan to perform the swap yourself, review our PCB Replacement Guide first. If a direct PCB swap does not fix the drive, we also offer a specialised PCB Replacement Service to address more complex issues — see the Adaptation Service page for full details.
