    Power spikes or surges can cause a lot of damage to electronic devices, including hard drives. A sudden increase in voltage can result in data loss or complete failure of the device. This video demonstrates how to identify the hard drive fuse on the pcb and how to fix it.
    Zero Alpha, a leading data recovery company, handles data recovery from hard drives damaged by power spikes. We focus on several popular brand names including Western Digital, Seagate, Toshiba, and Hitachi.

    Wow!!! That was an AMAZING tutorial!!! I've GOT to study MORE!!! I repair Computers and have a Micro-Electronics Certification from way back. I KNOW hard drives have fuses, but I will have to get a Soldering station to further analyze drives that I have lying around that won't power up. COULD be the fuse!!!! Subbed already!! KEEP EM COMING!! I NEED TO LEARN MUCH MORE!!! excellent job m8!!

    The replacement looks to be a zero ohm resistor, not a fuse. It will get the job done but its not like for like, keep up the good work

    still can't believe a little fuse, resistor, or whatever made an HDD completely useless. very informative video. thank you a lot for describing the problem and showing the solution to newbies.

    Nice video👌. Very much useful for startup data recovery companies who lack indepth technical skills like you. Keep it up. My best wishes. Thanks for sharing

    Thanks to you, well explained without fuss and useless talk like many other. Saved the day.

    thank you! personally i recommend (for community :) to use soldering iron like ts-100, 400C hot air can damage other components very quietly and fast

    Thank you. I have a blown fuse. Your video was helpful. Now I only need to get another fuse.

    Any source on where to get the replacement fuses? Also, how did you determine the size/amp rating of the fuse?

  • @johnkemas7344
    @johnkemas7344 20 днів тому

    What is the rating of the fuse you replaced? How many amps or an actually part number? Nice demo! Was got to send out 2 drives for data recovery that took a power spike from a power surge during a storm. I'll try this first.

    It's a very common misconception that a fuse can protect electronics... Simply putting it a fuse is a bit of wire gauged to only carry the right amount of current, there are many effects like time, heat, environment heat and heat dissipation that will also play into the overall equation of the fuse curves. Electronics is highly sensitive to static so which is more sensitive and will get damaged easier. The fuse will pop after the electronics are damaged. The only thing the fuse is protecting is the wire/ traces in the PCB, or in your house the wires from igniting and burning it down. And they don't even use them anymore it's all RCDs that trip at a certain current in a certain time ... I wonder why 😂

    If you are going to mention that the screwdriver is special and hard to get, might be a benefit to viewers to tell them the specification of the driver and how to acquire. Cheers!

      Most are Torx, Some use phillips, Others use a mix of different stuff. An electronics multi bit set will usually have you covered

    How about a drive that starts spinning but stops after a couple of seconds? I heard some weird spinning noises just before this behaviour, any idea? Thanks for the video!!

    How do you know the resistors what their resistance is because I think they are not listed on the printed circuit and the diode is not listed either, is it possible to connect normal diodes and resistors? What is the power that can go through them? Thanks

    I'm trying to repair a couple of my hard-drives that died days after each other. Lost 4 years of work on 3D projects.
    I noticed the white diagonal components, same as in this video. What are they?
    Yes, I'm an electronics engineer, no, I'm not familiar with ALL components. Due to health issues haven't been able to work for about 20 years, and the work I did before wasn't with SMD components.

    can I solder over the fuse to bypass it?

      Yes. As long as whatever upstream that caused the problem in the first place has been solved.
