Will, thanks for responding. I've actually already tried the freezer trick once before, but there was no difference in the symptoms. Do you have any idea what "Error uploading RAM" could mean?
Another oddity I've noticed with the drive is the read/write assembly has a Torx screw underneath...
ddrueding, thanks for your quick reply. I did actually try swapping the circuit board with that from the replacement drive, but this just resulted in the 8 LED flashes when the computer was turned on. I did try it in another machine as a secondary hard drive but to no avail.
Any other suggestions?
