Need the PCB's for these two HDD's as the pins on mine have broken off.

Hitatchi Deskstar (HDS722540VLAT20) 14R9245 40gb

AND

Maxtor D540x-4k MX4K940H2 40gb

Need these desprately, or if anyone knows where to get these new (id be willing to buy two new ones and use the boards from them) as i want all my old music and pictures back

Tried googling, and found one on ebay, so thats a maybe, and no retailers seem to supply these anymore.

Thanks.

40Gb drives are being phased out now so finding a new one would be difficult. Would the PCB for a different size hard disk in the same range be compatible?

Dont think so, tried out an 80gb version of the same HDD and it didnt boot properly
