I am receiving about two of these drives daily. (Momentus 5400.2)

Without exception, they are manufactured in China, and have firmware 7.01. Also, they are all out of Mac computers.

Is anyone else coming across these? Has anyone successfully managed to repair one?

you didn't specify what kind of failure?

You didn't specify what kind of failure you have with those drives? Just some badblocks, drive not seen by the computer? What does SMART say?
