I have patient Seagate ST1500LM012 that had heads sticked to the surface. I unsticked them and one of the heads looks a little bent.

Drive is Rosewood, has 1.5TB, has all 4 heads but i guess one of them is disabled because they look exactly like the ones in ST2000LM007 2TB.

Does anyone know if i can swap heads from ST2000LM007 ?

We have seen quite a few ST1000LM035 with 3 heads and we use the ST2000LM007 for donors so it's definitely worth a try.
