I have a pal with a WD hard disk (2 yr old, 1TB) from a WD 3.5" enclosure, which doesn't spin up. The enclosure is unlikely to be at fault, since the drive doesn't spin up when connected to a different PSU/SATA controller. In an attempt to recover this guy's data, I'm planning to buy a HDD with the same model # and attempt to replace the PCB on the bottom of the drive, hoping that this will allow the drive to power up, work normally and get the data recovered. Anyone on here done this themselves, successfully or otherwise, have any pointers or advice to offer?
