Item Information

The Process

Model: STM31000340AS
Board #: 100466824
Firmware: Please read description to the right -->
Capacity: 1TB / 1000GB

Locate the number on the edge of your PCB board (Circled red in the picture), it must say 100466824.
If this is a match, then we can make a clone of your board.

To make the clone, we will need you to fill this form, then ship your DAMAGED PCB (circuit board) to us. We will then copy the information from your PCB onto our PCB. We will then ship the working cloned PCB back to you. (To find out more, please read our article by clicking here.)

This process is necessary to ensure compatibility, newer Seagate boards have UNIQUE firmwares (even when they have the same firmware on the label), and is therefore impossible to match without a firmware transfer.

When to buy this item:

A common problem with Seagate Barracuda 7200.11 drives is that it would suddenly stop being recognized by the computer, or be recognized as 0MBs. Normally, there is a decent chance that it could be the PCB at fault, but with 7200.11 drives, it usually is NOT the PCB, but a firmware problem instead. A data recovery professional is a better choice.

We recommend buying this item when you are sure it is the PCB. For example, if there was a power surge, or some components are obviously burnt, or the wrong power adapter was used to power up the drive. If the drive will not spin up at all, and wasn't dropped, chances of success with replacing the PCB are quite good.

There are no refunds with this purchase, so if you would like to describe the specific symptoms to us, please Contact us through our online form, we will try our best to reply within 12 hours.

Item Includes: circuit board, firmware transfer, and installation instruction sheet
