my 320GB single platter drive's logic board failed, so I need a PCB to replace it so I can recover my data. the drive is nearly identical to the #2 sample drive in the review of the drive on this site (dated jan 24 2008, WD3200AAKS-00B3A0, 11 spokes on the bottom)
the date doesn't have to be exact, but the firmware has to be similar for it to work
if you simply have one lying around that's great, I'll buy them off you, if you are using the drive but don't mind getting another drive in return I can send you a replacement drive for you to copy your info onto using drive imaging software, and if you need help with that I will help.
I've been looking through other channels for over a year now, no luck, including PCBsolutions.com. I really don't want to have to pay the ~$1000 for professional recovery
Looking for WD 320GB drive dated jan 24 2008-ish

I'm hoping someone here has a drive for you but just in case they don't you might want to cross post this on http://forums.storagereview.com/index.p ... rives-hdd/ as well.
At my last two employers I had access to a ton of spare hard drives but I'm between jobs right now so I probably can't get one for you.
