quantum tm32a012 revision compatibility?
hi,
i previously posted a message about recovering data off a quantum tm32a012 hd that i fried. it was suggested that i could probably get the drive working again by replacing the circuit board with one from the same model of drive. i've finally found a tm32a012 board that i could buy however the revision numbers don't match. mine is "Rev 02-E" and the one i want to buy is "Rev 01-D". i'm wondering if that circuit board could still work to enable me to recover data off this drive? thanks! ken |

The only way to know is to try it and see. Should be fine with a quantum IDE drive of that vintage. |

why do u think it is pcb board problem.
Usaualy it is heads or firmware on that model. Board are the same. But u will need to put a drive in a safe mode and olay with firmware if i am right. HelpDisc |
