need quantum hd for data recovery

[kav]

I am looking for a 20GB Quantum HD, Fireball CX series. The part # is CX20A011, Rev.02-B. I need to swap the burned-out circuit board for data recovery purposes, and thus need an exact duplicate. This drive was standard equipment in Hewlett Packard Pavillion 8575C Desktop computer. If anyone has this drive, it would be a great help, and I will pay for it.

I will be notified by email if you reply to this post, and will get back to you. Thanks to all who may help.

I would recomend looking on ebay.com for the part number and see if anyone has one up(chances are they do, I have had to do the same thing as you are doing for someone). Guess those HP's get too hot.

Or http://auctions.yahoo.com . They might have one.

Also, my HP isn't hot. I have an XT983 that is modded up with the stock fans. It is only running at 70 deg. F (20 deg C).:cool:

If you goto Quatums website the drive is still cover under there warrenty for three years in totall. All you will have to do is pay for the shipping to them and they will send you a new one, if you have a credit card they will ship one to you first then you can ship the dead on to them after

Yeah, but how is that gonna help get the data off his dead drive. You know if he opens it first does the controler swap etc. sends it back the void if broken seal will tell the tale. Not gonna help his lost data one bit. but will replace the hdd anyhow.:(

P.S. maxtor has the same 3 year warrenty on retail, om is 1 year as always.... I know I had one of the first flakey retail 30gig ata 100 drives that went bust a year later. They cross shipped with no problem and sent me a 40gig ata133 single platter even up! Now thats a deal I liked. Seems they had no 30gig to send me, uhmm.:D

don't you know that you can get some warm water and add a drop or two in that seal and let it peel itself off? hehe,, done that before, then when you are done swaping just use a mild clear glue to make a thin layer and glue that seal back :D



P4, that's how you can sneak around it :D
