WD10EADS-00L5B1 (Kermit) FW:000500BG

Hi all,

can anybody supply me with corresponding modules (esp. module 11)?
Drive is a WD10EADS-00L5B1 (Kermit) FW:000500BG / ROM Version 05.BGE
I have found the PCB and all heads to be ok, but the drive does not ID nor do I get access to the modules.
I have access to SA with hotswap but due to shifting within the SA module 11 is corrupt.

Thanks in advance!

After hotswap, save module 1 and leave utility (dont power off); then restart utility and check to use "profile".
Selecte module 1 and continue.
Now the utility will know the exact position of all modules and you'll be able to read module 11.

Thank you, I completely forgot this option. :oops:
But: module 11 is unreadable now (both copies). At least I was able to find a part with matching FW.
