I have a seagate barracuda 7200.10 320 GB st3320820A hard drive that is not working so i want to swap the PCB board. The only matching PCB i have found has a SATA connection instead of an IDE connection.

The details of my PCB are:

P/N: 9BJ03G--560
Firmware: 3.AFE
Site Code: TK

The deatils of the PCB i'm thinking of replacing it with are:

P/N: 9bj13g-060
Firmware: 3.AFE
Site Code: TK

The only difference is the connection type ie. SATA instead of IDE.

Will this work?

If not does anyone have a drive i can buy that matches mine?

Thanks

No, that won't work like that. You have to find exact match if you don't have right tools to adapt firmware to SATA board.
