PCB failures (Such as WD PCB 2060-771737-*** (2061-771737-***)<\/b>) affect thousands of hard drives every year and often result in permanent data loss. A hard drive may suddenly fail to power on, and a computer may not detect that it is plugged in. Some failed hard drives will also show up in computer BIOS with incorrect brand\/model information. PCB failures can also cause physical issues such as read\/write head failures, and many PCB failure symptoms overlap with the symptoms of other physical hard drive issues.<\/p>\n

Q: Weird ROM Size Issue<\/b><\/p>\n
I’ve been working with a WD5000BMVW with PCB 771737. According to the list of compatible SATA boards the one I need is 771692. My original issue was that my patient has a 512KB ROM chip and all SATA donor boards I looked at had only a 256KB chip. I finally found one with a 512KB chip from a different job I was working on and tried to use it by flashing the ROM but it didn’t work. Now when I …<\/p>\n

Q: My Passport Problem<\/b><\/p>\n
Hi, I have a problem with a MY Passport USB 30 which contains a WD5000BMVW-11AMCSO This drive on first appraisal was not spinning up but the PCB was receiving power (led on) I acquired a replacement PCB from HDDZONE (2060-771737-000) rev P1 and was advised that the serial ROM for the SYMWAVE at U8 and the serial ROM for the firmware at U12 would need swapping I tried the replacement PCB just to see if the drive did spin up and this was successful I then got U8 and U12 chips <\/p>\n

Q: Integrated USB Board Issue<\/b><\/p>\n
Seem to be overrun by these type of drives recently. I have a WD10TMVW thats very slow to respond. It has board board 2060-771737-00 (image attached). I have a matching SATA board 2060-771820-000 Controller number) and have swapped the U12 chip.

Q: SATA Match for USB Board 771737<\/b><\/p>\n
I have a WD10TMVW with the above USB board. The matching guide says 771692 is a match, but the ROM is not the same size. Clients ROM is 512, ROM on board is 256.
