I may actually have one of these in Stone. I will check the part numbers and
such when I get in tomorrow.

Hi,
A friend of mine has an IOMEGA USB drive which stopped working. It had not
been used for a few weeks and now it wont connect. All his data is on it
and
he is just a teensy bit desperate.
Anyway, he popped it round to me and after opening the case I could smell
the problem. The power component on the controller board had burned out. I
tried a sata controller of an identical drive with exactly the same
interfaces but its not recognised by the bios. The drive spins up though.
So has anybody got a Seagate IDE Drive with a working controller on it
they'd like to give away/sell? I could even borrow it for a bit. Its just
to recover the data and transfer it to another drive. Of course, I might
be
wasting my time but I need to try.
Dive Details:
Seagate Barracuda 7200.10 250Gb (but board could be from any
capacity)
Model: ST90E1BMJZ
Firmware: 3 AAC
Hope someone can help.
Many thanks, Walt
