Head stack transfer of Hard Disk

Hello,

I just found this forum from a link and I must say it is really great and fully packed with valuable information. I have been DR enthusiast for about a year now. Most of the things I learned by trial and error. I am having a problem with a Western digital SATA hard drive and was hoping for some good advice.

Model: WD2500JS-40MVB1
Problem: Drive is clicking.

Although I didn't believe it was an electronic problem, I replaced the PCB anyway.Result: Nothing changed, the drive is still clicking.I am pretty sure that it is a problem with a Head, so I want to replace the Head stack!I have a downer drive, and although I don't have any real experience with Head stack transfers, I have played with the Head stack before, and I am confident that I will be able to successfully make the transfer. My problem is that I don't have a clean room.I was hoping that someone could give me some advice on how to perform this without using an authentic class 100 clean room.

Data Recovery Company Recommendations

Submitted by kevin_476

Can anyone recommend a data Recovery Company? Like anyone who's had a hard drive crash, I don't want to trust the recovery of my image files to an inexperienced outfit. I have/had a LaCie d2 Big Disk 500GB with about 400GB of files on it. Evidently, the problem is most likely electronic, as there is a small hole burned on the control card. Some of the files are backed up, but not all, and they are all important to me.It's my understanding that the 2 Maxtor drives inside are RAID O configured, which makes recovering the files more complicated. If it's risky to fix, then I want to use a reliable, established company.Any recommendations would be greatly appreciated.If you are pretty sure it is the control board, you can do what the recovery company would probably do anyway...that is to replace the electronics.
