Hey LTT,

 

   I need to repair a broken hard drive, the problem of which being a faulty PCB. I've gotten a replacement and now just need to move over the BIOS chip. Does anyone know of a repair shop that does this sort of thing for a reasonable price or will let me use their heat gun? I don't own any soldering tools myself but if I can't find any well priced locations I can buy some. I live in the US in Texas.

 

Thanks for any help,

MDPS

No one will. Its a huge libality, and you will probably screw it up.

You can 't just do this as they each have seprate data on how the drive it setup and how the sectors work.
