OT-Hard drive / Data Recovery request for help... 29-Jun-2017 At 8:13:14 PM jgoding

Howdy tec savvy Chockstoners,

OK this may not sound like a topic for a climbing forum, but really this drive is all my climbing guides and get this, my other copy has died too.

There is a professional data recovery place in the city which charges $800 and is likely to be a good bet (but I'd rather try and find another option!).

Would anyone be good at replacing logic boards on portable USB drives (it's a 3TB Seagate "Barracuda" drive, bought from Officeworks).

I've taken it to my local computer dude (Fangs computers, Lygon Street Brunswick) and been told it's the logic board as opposed to the drive itsef that's buggered. He said he wasn't really equipped to replace logic boards and referred me onto PAYAM (L7, 606 St Kilda Rd Melbourne - the $800 option).

Does anyone have these skills (and is based in Melbourne) I could ask for a hand?
