Hi Jared, are these swabs good for cleaning platter surface for fingerprints and debris?

Thank you all for all your reply and suggestions. Removed platters with the help of stickers, used the plastic stick to remove the slider and that's it. Drive now imaging. :D

Thank you everyone for your valuable feedback and time spent on trying to figure out the problem with my device. My PC3KUDMA is back on track and working again without the symptom I was facing earlier. probably it was either wattage issue or just dust buildup. I removed extra 3.5" Sata hard...

I don't think Its loose connection because when I tried removing molex out of PC3K It was jammed in and I had to apply extra force to remove it.

It was weak battery which was showing these awkward results. Now after replacing battery of my DMM, readings I am getting is on the dot. 12.14 and 5.12 for 12V and 5V. So PSU is OK.

Can weak battery of multimeter cause these readings?

Measured on 24pin ATX Pins and also on molex going to PC3K.

I thought maybe power supply is faulty, so took below readings 16.63V on 12V (Yellow Wire) 7.09V on 5V (Red Wire) 4.84V on 3.3V (Orange Wire) Are these fine?

I had 2 cases, that was 1TB drive for which I am still looking for suitable donor. I didn't attempt 1TB head replacement upon your doubt that it might not work.

Hurray!! Successfully did HSA replacement of 2TB drive. Thank you Jared for your warning ! Did about 10 - 12 attempts of head replacement before actually touching donor head.

Hello Everyone, Kindly confirm, if below both HSA would be compatible or not. Both drives front label are exact same except Sr. No., WWN and Date. Want to take your expert opinion if trying head replacement will be of any use. I suspect because of density difference it might not work. Kindly...
