Compatibility and BIOS/ROM transfer
This listing is for the circuit board only, not the complete hard drive. G003250A exists in SATA and USB versions: you must order the version matching the interface of your original PCB. If you are unsure, send us clear photographs of both sides before ordering.
A simple board swap is not sufficient. The BIOS/ROM chip on the original board contains drive-specific data and must be transferred to the replacement board. Do not attempt to desolder the chip unless you have the appropriate equipment and experience.
Workshop service
When the PCB is purchased from our website, BIOS/ROM transfer is offered separately for €25. You may send only your original PCB. Once your board has been received and the supplier PCB is available, the intervention is normally completed within 48 to 72 hours. We can return only the modified PCB or both boards, according to your preference.
Availability and limitations
This product is not held in workshop stock. It is ordered from our supplier with our weekly order, with an estimated lead time of around 2 weeks.
If the ROM chip is damaged or unreadable, we will inform you and refer you to a specialist data-recovery laboratory. Replacing the PCB cannot guarantee data recovery if the drive also has an internal or mechanical fault.
