   Also, if that isn't your revision number, here is another revision number for the PCB based on your model number given (I have marked the test points)

   And finally, even if I am right and a shorted diode was at fault, you should not rely on this hard drive without replacing that diode. Look on the diode for the part number and replace it or, copy the data while you have it mounted and readable and discard the drive. Finding the shorted diode and removing it is merely a "band-aid" to allow you to retrieve data. The drive is not meant to be in use after that without replacing it.

   Check for shorted diodes on the PCB. I bet that is your problem. You don't even need to replace the shorted diode. Just remove it when you locate it.
