Seagate PCB 100664987 Failure - HardDriveParts.com's Blog

PCB failures (Such as Seagate PCB 100664987) 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.

Some emails from customers of Seagate PCB 100664987 failures are listed below, along with tips for replacing & repairing.

Q: Seagate HDD ROM – what is stored on it?

I decided to set aside a small budget (low 3-digit) to get data out from a ST2000DM001 Problem At boot, the computer takes a very long time for detection phase (AHCI) and does not detect the drive In IDE mode, time spent on (not-)detecting the HDD is shorter but still many times longer than it should be The spinup and initial head activity sounds alright to me, but what do I know about HDDs (I’ll get the recording if needed, setting up the audio equipment takes a bit) I’m going to start wit
