This product was as good as new. I decided to take... a chance and purchase this because the seller's website allows you to match your old PCB to what they have to sell exactly. In other words you know that you are getting something that would replace your non-functional PCB. The quality of the PCB was excellent. If your hard drive was not damaged by force such as dropping it, and it is not old there is a good chance the PCB is the problem. I shorted my PCB out. I could smell the circuits burning. A replacement PCB saved my hard drive. Easy to install,they even included a small Torx screwdriver to install the PCB along with instructions to help.
Th...e Hard was a life saver and its works great using an installing the hard drive was not difficult at all. The Brand name Hard drive reputation is still number one in my book.
Been very please with this items. Works very well, b...ought it to increase my hard drive capacity as my computers HD was only a 42 gig Nolonger capitatable of up grade software to state with software that is supported.
