Head compatability for WD40PURX

Hello,
I have HDD WD40PURX-64NZ6Y0, family apollo.
HDD is not detecting and needs head change.
I have got Donor HDD WD40PURZ- 85TTDY0, but family is same as apollo.
When I am opening Mod 47 and the microjog editor to see whether heads are compatible or not, everything is 00 in microjog editor.
How to find a compatible head ?

I wouldn't worry much about microjogs. More important is matching the right part of the DCM, date, country.

T2 and TJ DCM codes are not often cross-compatible. You might get lucky and it'll work, but not often. I'd keep looking for another donor.

T2 and TJ should be ok, Tx is not compatible with Vx

I agree with this.

Maybe I'm just overly picky with my donors. I just know what's always worked for me.
I guess there's only one way for the OP to find out...
